That world is all about who knows who. Gotta mingle at the places you wanna get to. Attend “virtual happy hours”, attend events from speakers in their orgs and get their emails, etc.

Move to tech banking. You dont really need to know how to model for VC--no real cash flow. Tap the GS alumni network!!!

If I don’t need to learn how to model then why go to tech banking? Would love as many details on this as you can provide

I’m a bit confused about share dilution and if it’s worth it for me to buy some of my stock options… thanks in adv!

I want to join a start up in my industry but I need to rescind a job acceptance from a more establish company. I resigned from my old job and didn’t start the new job yet. Is the non compete I signed, as part of the job offer acceptance for the position with the bigger company, enforceable if I rescind my job acceptance before I actually start a new job? I don’t think it is. I didn’t receive a sign on bonus so no additional consideration was exchanged from my understanding of my law classes.

Do recruiters and Hiring Managers actually review and read resumes? Also tech companies that sell SaaS, what is it with the requirements of having 10 years or more if technical sales experience? Also the ramp up period is not realistic. Average sales cycle for a reputable SaaS provider is 12-24 months. How on earth a start up can state that their ramp up period is 90 days? The company hasn’t had any new sales either. Start up CEO’s… be realistic or seek enough funding to operate.
