How to get a job where you actually get to make mistakes and do something
Last week, Seth Godin wrote this in reply to Harvard Business School students seeking advice on how to find a job:
“Go to a small company, work for the CEO, get a job where you actually get to make mistakes and do something”
Brilliant advice.
But what’s the next step?
Well, I’m one of the CEOs (we have two) of Red Gate Software. We’re the 14th best small company to work for in the UK. We were featured in this month’s Wired UK magazine as one of twenty businesses worldwide reinventing the way people work.
I’m looking for somebody smart and hardworking to work with me for the next twelve months. You’ll take on a number of projects, but the first two will be:
- Making Springboard, our incubator program, a success in 2010
- Setting up and running a million dollar challenge
Interested? Get in touch with me and persuade me that we should chat. You need to be able to work in the UK, and be willing to relocate to Cambridge.
