I need a job by the end of this month and have applied almost everywhere. I can't drive, so that scratched off an unfair amount of jobs.
I tried everything, calling, waiting, going in person, bugging hiring managers.
Tell me how you got a job so that I can put that into my own action.

Keep working at if, make sure when you show up to talk to the hiring managers you show that you’re interested in the position and be specific about how you can help them (not generic). And how you are always early and always show up for your shift. Then ask “when are roles expected to open up?” And something to the effect of what else would i need to bring to the table to be considered?

Also, would me making my exit to another role that I might leave in a 8 months bite me in the ass down the line? Do I just grab anything in the interim?

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

I just left my pre-seed startup that was running out of cash (we made $100,000 in revenue this year, and sunk $1m in costs). I was making $40,000 as a developer (plus 20k stock options at $1/share per year) and they refused to pay me any more money. I have 17,000 vested stock options, total number of shares at the time of my contract was 4million. 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!

So, I just joined a startup. No processes, no clear strategy, just one goal: selling. Getting leads. When ever I try to build a strategy, they (founders) swamp me with blablabla stories and not a single action plan. Is this the usual at startups? Also,no real company culture. At all. No HR. I am reaaaally struggling to get a sense of belonging here. What should I expect?? Tia
