Cool Companies and Hot Areas

Filed under: Uncategorized — maureenpnelson @ 1:24 pm

A client of mine was disappointed because he didn’t get a job at a tech giant. I suggested he go after smaller companies and start-ups where not everyone is competing to get in. Here’s a list of companies I pulled together for him. The last few lists are specialties, industries and careers, rather than companies, but I included these to help him think about going sideways from his background. If you only have time to click through one, look at the “10 to Watch: Hot Biotech Prospects” as it gives an idea of the diversity within one field. If you know of similar lists that would fit here, please let me know and I’ll add them.
