Looking for full stack developer to join my early startup. We are a small team but hoping to grow a lot this year. Must love books and geeky stuff

Any suggestions (or books or articles) around taking startups from smaller (50-100) to the 300-500 range? Would love to read more about challenges that usually come up at this stage and how people navigate them. I just joined a series C and want to be prepared to navigate things.

How to ask a startup to share their books with you. Being courted for Manager of S&O role, but don't want to be walking into a sinking ship.

As a new product manager what books should I be reading? I’ve already read Inspired but looking or more. For context, I’ve joined a series A start up and as expected there’s a lot to do and it’s very fluid. I want to be able to help the head of product as much as possible as well as provide some structure to how we work.

I am an aspiring entrepreneur and want to start a business in future for sure. I have a few ideas but nothing concrete, or close to being a start up yet. I work in tech, but a generalist - have done sales, delivery operations etc. trying to get experience in as many areas as possible before I go on my own. I dnt know where to start the journey. Are their any books or other material I can read/reference to think and plan about my entrepreneurship journey. I m in mid 40s based in t2 city US east.

Looking for recommendations to generally upskill my Strategy work (or learn from scratch) — be it courses, classes, books, podcasts, people to follow.

For context, I’m a freelance Social Media Manager/Strategist and I came into Ad world via Startups. Throwing myself into learning on the job with more Strategy gigs - but I still don’t feel like I quite know the lingo or best practices or theories.

Hi, i will be joining a startup soon to work as a product manager. What are some good books/materials/courses I can read in the meantime to prepare myself better for the job?

Considering an exit to a startup that just completed a solid series B. They’re willing to provide competitive comp package and surprised how large the base is for a startup. Has me concerned about being on the high end and being the first person that comes to mind when it’s time to pinch a few pennies or clean up the books ahead of future rounds/IPO. Valid concern or am I overthinking it?

Can anyone pls recommend a resource to learn Agile / scrum in the shortest way possible? Books or online class? Just joined a startup and want to brush up on my skills. Thanks!

I'm looking to pivot from consulting into tech. I've gotten lots of interesting from tech companies on the ops side but am much more interested in product management.

New to startup ecosystem. What are some resources, books, podcasts that help you along the way? Are there any communities you interact with regularly on Reddit/discord/meetup?

Book recommendations: Hi 🐠, can you all recommend a few books that can help me learn a little about the following topics?

My background is in tech transactional. I joined a cybersecurity SaaS startup at the end of last year and now also handle more generalist matters in addition to all things commercial-related. I have a number of books on contracts that I’ve found super helpful over the years (The Tech Contracts Handbook, A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting, Sign Here, etc.). Can anyone recommend books they’ve found helpful for L&E matters, privacy matters, product matters, or marketing/advertising matters?

I’m looking for some new things to read or listen to — doesn’t need to be ad-related. Books, podcasts, whaddya got?

Anyone ever take a pay cut to get out of consulting? I hate it here, and miss general IT work/engineering work that I used to do.

Got an offer but I would be going from 110k, to 85k…

What types of roles should I be recruiting for? I’m less interested in heavy data analytics and more so on the strategy side of things (i.e. fluffy BS)

Am I crazy? I had 7 years of strategy consulting (Monitor Deloitte) in my home country. Immigrated to new country 3 years ago. Started with grad school. Took a “tech strategy” job at ACN in the new country after school (At ACN, tech strat has same pay band with biz strat). Now, everywhere I’m interviewing, people keep saying i’m not an ‘actual’ strategist. Like, wtf? Tech strat is only a very small fraction of my career. How do I tell my story so that people don’t discount my foreign experience?

Accepted into b school while simultaneously interviewing for other companies. Is it bad form to renege on b school if I receive an offer?

Really want to exit consulting, but all I have experience in is making PowerPoint slides for our cloud practice…

What do you even say when you cold email hiring managers on LinkedIn? I’m expressing interest + asking if they’re open to informational interviews / answering some questions. But if anyone else has any tricks that have successfully worked, please let me know.

Anyone at McK or BCG wanna give me a referral? I'll post info below

Had a 4th interview Friday with a ~300 person start up that I thought went well (along with all of the interviews). Haven’t heard anything since so have been anxious, just saw on LinkedIn that today a new VP of the department I’m interviewing for was hired/started. Thinking they’ll want me to meet him and that’s why they hadn’t reached out until he officially started. Does that make sense or am I just over thinking it?😣

Forgot to send interview thank you email. It was on Tuesday. Should I still send, better late than never? Definitely overthinking it 🤦‍♂️

Thoughts on going from senior manager in consulting to product manager (entry level) ?

I can’t help but feel like starting one’s own business is the ultimate endgame…

Anyone know what the Capital One cooldown period is? I’ve finally regained my ability to casr and would like another crack

Its not the "great resignation" but the "great reshuffle"... how convenient.🤔

I just got an offer for a senior software developer role at $150k starting. It is a small start up with 28 people in the team and AI driven. My recent salary was $118 so it is quite a jump for me and I really liked the VP I spoke to. Very somber and smart guy.
However, I have several other interviews coming up ranging from big corporate to app companies. Shall I decline the current offer to explore more or accept it but push my start day to later so I could stillbdo the other interviews?

I want to work in market strategy and tactical company Brand/Product development. Currently consulting with a focus on digital transformation projects. Think there is a path forward to my goals?
