Latest update (11-09 14:34): Sierra's APX program, two years in, places new grads in product and engineering rotations

Overview: Sierra says its APX program, a one-year rotational program across product management and engineering, is two years old and has run two classes. In a company blog post, Sierra names two early participants: Manat Kaur, who returned to Sierra as an APX and helped build Voice Personas, and Rajiv Swamy, who launched mortgage agents for Rocket and later led Horizon. The post is Sierra's own account, and the report includes no outside evidence of the program's results.
