The recruiting and hiring process needs a revamp.

Lack of transparency in the application process is a barrier to equal opportunity and access to unique, attractive jobs is uneven at best. The traditional “gatekeepers” are ripe for disruption.

We can do better...
In this vein, in the weeks to come, I am going to be launching a job board, where I will curate and share the most exciting new jobs in finance, media, and technology.

This job board will be free for all candidates, so anyone can browse and apply to these amazing opportunities.
I will be sharing featured roles every week via Twitter and my newsletter.

Companies will gain direct access to a unique, growing pool of talent and have their exciting new roles and brands highlighted to a large audience.
If you are a company in finance, media, or technology that is hiring and you are interested in posting or featuring your open roles, please send me a message for details.

Recruiting and hiring needs a revamp.

Let’s do better together.
Overwhelmed by the interest here and excited about the companies in finance, media, and technology that are signed on for the launch in June. It's going to be great!

If you are a growing company interested in having your roles featured, DM me for details and a pre-launch link!

A great commencement speech is filled with wisdom.

On careers, startups, business, or life.

10 powerful lessons from the best commencement speeches of all time:
Connecting the Dots

"You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future." - Steve Jobs, Stanford 2005

Life is uncertain.

Have faith that your dots will somehow connect.
Master the Rescue

"The difference between triumph and defeat, you’ll find, isn’t about willingness to take risks. It’s about mastery of rescue." - Atul Gawande, Williams 2012

Failures are a given.

The greatest don't fail less, they just succeed in rescuing more.

THREAD: The story of the last few weeks in business has been the ransomwear attack that took down the Colonial Pipeline.

On ransomwear-as-a-service, DarkSide, and what happens when publicity becomes really bad for business:
1/ First, a few definitions...

What is ransomwear?

Ransomware is a type of malware - a software designed to cause harm to a computer, server, or network.

Ransomwear is used to encrypt the files on your system and hold it “hostage” until the demanded ransom is paid.
2/ Ransomwear is not new, but ransomwear attacks are most definitely on the rise.

With the world increasingly moving online, the cyber-attackers have experienced a windfall.

Both the frequency of attacks and the size of the average ransom payments have increased dramatically.

Intellectual curiosity is a competitive advantage.

But contrary to what you’ve been told, it has nothing to do with intelligence.

10 ways to start developing your intellectual curiosity today:
Scrub Your Windows

“Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won't come in.” - Isaac Asimov

Curiosity is a light that can only enter when your mental windows are clean.

Scrub them off now and then.

Let the light in.
Embrace “I Don’t Know”

“The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” - Socrates

Avoid false confidence (and the people that display it!).

Embracing what you do not know is a superpower.

Recognize your gaps and blind spots.

Slowly, methodically fill them in.

Warren Buffett is a treasure trove of wisdom.

But contrary to what you have been told, most of it has nothing to do with investing.

10 powerful lessons for life from the Oracle of Omaha:
Wait For A Juicy Pitch

“You don't have to swing at everything - you can wait for your pitch."

Life doesn’t reward you for the number of swings you take.

Focus on identifying the juiciest pitch.

When it comes, swing hard and don’t miss it.
Just Stop Digging

“The most important thing to do if you find yourself in a hole is to stop digging."

When things aren’t working, change course and try something different.

Be nimble. Be agile.

When you find yourself at the bottom of a hole, stop digging and climb out of it.
