Another success story from last week: Liam recently landed a role at a startup he found through Next Play. “I knew that I wanted to work at a growing startup but I wasn’t sure how to find the right one. I joined the community and used the resources to guide my job search every day. I applied to a bunch of roles and eventually landed here.” If you’d like help finding your Next Play (perhaps you’d like to meet a cofounder or get feedback on your resume or just meet like-minded people), you should check out Friends of Next Play.
