Work at the biggest and best company you can, with the best position you can get hired for. There is invaluable brand capital, and the network is priceless. It’s the same rationale between choosing colleges. I attended a top 14 university. I have instant respect and credibility. I currently work for a massive global technology company. I have instant respect and credibility. Do I ask for it? No. Is it warranted more…

I'm 21. Started at Amazon, Apple, Northrop, then the largest private software firm and have wanted nothing but to exit the corporate world for a remote job at a start up. Getting closer by choosing a smaller employer that's remote flexible.

How do you have 4 jobs already at 21? No college? Or just EXTREMELY short stints?
