Startups would have you believe that technical skills are the most important/valuable. When in reality, it’s just one of many factors that make a strong contributor to a team... technical skills just happen to be the easiest to evaluate in an interview setting.

If a company gives you a job offer a little *too* quickly, it's a potential red flag 🚩 and you might be too good for them.

But if the offer comes after actually getting to know you via a 2-way process…then you just might've found your next team 🎉✨✅🏢 #StartupJobTips

RADICAL IDEA 💡 For your next technical whiteboarding interview, ask – v. nicely – whether whiteboarding is regular part of the job (usually no) & ask if you can do it in a way that suits you better (e.g. laptop 👩🏾‍💻👩🏻‍💻)

“Job postings get taken off the website all the time... even when you’re in the middle of interviews!” 😩

👉 Job seeker tip: get organized & save PDFs of *every job you submit an application for” 📄
