Decent chance she wanted the job (and penned the op-ed with that in mind), but the feeling wasn't mutual.


I would doubt Uber's board wants a "serial entrepreneur". Uber is going to be a $12-15B (revs) company this year, potentially with an impending IPO. That's two orders of magnitude larger than Robin Chase's experience at ZipCar. I would bet they're looking for someone with experience at (growing) companies in the $15-30B range, probably from a logistics-centric industry.
