Been in media for 3 years (social to be exact). Now I feel like I want to join a startup where I can drive impact and growth. Had a realization the other day that I’ve always enjoyed being the scrappy underdog . Anybody know a good way to go about finding a startup job ?

But you can drive growth at other companies that are not start ups. Established Tech, SaaS, FinTech.

Startups also provide ambiguity, require some risk tolerance and requirement to do more than just your role.

I reached out to small companies that seemed like they might be expanding to include my profession. A bunch were interested but had not gotten there yet. But I did eventually find one and we are growing like crazy! Like at a rate where its hard to keep up at times.

What is your background? I might have a potential recommendation to reach out to someone.

Send me a DM. Might have an interesting opportunity for you!

I am an Software Engineer Analyst in my current organization yoe 2.8 years, and is offered an Associate L2 position in big4.
Is it correct position to go with according to my yoe or I should apply for senior associate?? Please suggest.

My boss asked me what id like to do moving forward at work. The department im in has gone under many changes the past few months. I was really hoping the business would put me in a place they “need” me but instead it’s up to me…
My goal is to reach the top, climb the ladder and one day be CEO. I have a lot of outside influences that make this a possible venture.
I’m currently in sales but don’t know if the right path is to continue in.
What should I say to my boss, knowing I’m on right path?

Why is education deemed more valuable on a pay scale than experience? Employers will pay someone with a degree and no experience a greater salary, than someone who has exhibited the experience.
