The Unemployed Life

Want to Work at a Startup? Does Your Startup Need Workers?

By Sara Clemence ⋅ 3:44 pm February 5, 2010 ⋅ One comment

networking 150Talk about upside potential.

In the recession, lots of entrepreneurs have had to bootstrap their startups. They’re dying for talent, but can’t pay salaries. Meawhile, there are lots of smart people willing to work for, um, “alternative” compensation (i.e., equity, low pay, or nothing), because they want to build their resume, take a shot at a startup or just do something with their unemployed selves.

Enter JobNob.

Our smart friends at JobNob bring  the two sides together. They have held eight successful mixers in Silicon Valley for job-seekers to connect with startups, and they’re brining the show to New York on Feb. 9.

WHEN: Tuesday, February 9, 2010, 4:30 pm
(Company pitches start at 5)

WHERE: Public House, 140 East 41st Street

REGISTER HERE

Attendance is free for everyone. If you want to make a one-minute pitch to the group about your company, it will run $50. Putting an ad on a job site could cost just as much, and you get access to some high-class, since Yale, Carnegie Mellon, and Columbia are among the partners.

  1. College interns are another great group of motivated talent that JobNob should add to their pool in bringing together people willing to work and learn with entrepreneurs.
