Investor

Product Manager

Either after 8pm or before 8am. When they're wrapping up work or starting work for the day.  
  
 Although if you're looking to invest in them, any time is fine lol. They will make time as soon as they read the word investment/venture capital in the subject line. 
  
 Very few will not care, and they will likely be profitable and not interested in outside investment.

Any one looking for product interns?

So I was running a startup but it got failed in June. Since then, I have been looking for a job in a startup or VC. But, there are very less openings in Business Analyst, Finance, and Investment Analyst roles.

Does anyone know startups or VCs hiring for the above roles?

Startup got failed, not getting any job

Do founders even reply to cold emails . Have emailed about 30 of them but hardly one o two reverts. Are they too busy or cold emails are out of trend? Reaching out to create openings but of no avail yet. On LinkedIn these founders add lines like  my DMs are open or reach at this email address, and even after emails no response.

I wonder why !!!

Software Engineer

I am currently in my final year of btech cse from a tier 3 college. So i am looking for opportunities in the industry it can be internships or jobs but dont know how to get started. So please let me know if you have any tips regarding off campuses or have any opportunities for me.
My technical skills include c++, python, Fullstack webdev (mern) and Blockchain

How to get offcampus opportunities?

Such a society we live in wheee people are given preferences on their job and titles( company name and college name) etc  ) and in the start up space this is too much.  So founders assume someone from a different experience can’t do the job based on what ? If someone wasn’t given an opportunity for once how can a decision be made ?  They only want fell top schools top companies. Look at the US and learn , seen people with diverse backgrounds been given an opportunity in fields of unknown knowledge and they have been able to achieve and do well. But these start ups here only care for branded names , but boast about diversity etc and anyone with passion please reach out to us if want to shape the future of India) bs) and when you reach out they don’t care to reply .  You are just starting and you can atleast reply . Start ups okay with paying some analyst with good package but can’t pay some one else who ants to work and learn for a lower package .

Hypocrisy

I have been on this journey for a long time now. Lots of failure comes with loads of learning. Each step or initiative I took has helped me grow as a person, the business guy (ed-tech, media space), and also in terms of technicalities (full-stack product management, hardcore hands-on into technology and I love user experience)

Ps: currently running an edtech startup in pre-seed/seed stage

Feel free to ask anything, would be happy to help even personally

Currently I am in my second year from a Tier 3 college. On campus placements at my college for the 2024 batch is really worse. Few companies are hiring for sales roles etc. and most of them are putting tough eligibility criteria and hiring only few.

To be very honest, I have no hopes from on campus placements. I am going for the off campus route.
What should I do to get a decent intern in third year/fourth year and a decent job by the time of graduation?

Talking about my progress, I am doing DSA, taking part in contests in Codechef, Codeforces, and Leetcode. 
Besides that I have started learning Machine Learning. Have done only the Math part and basics though still now. Been to 2 offline hackathons.

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I am looking for influencers (not Indian market) and people with great reach have made it so difficult to contact them
They are running agencies, have multiple websites
But no emails whatsoever

Anyone in content creation, please put your email

Hello everyone,

Saw quite some people doing AMAs on this platform from VCs to Engineers, but nobody from Founder's Office roles.

Knowing that this role is somewhat new in the job market, not many people still know a lot about it. Shoot your questions, would answer them to the best of my capacity.

Background: Worked in the FO role for 2 FMCG brands, before joining a Fintech where I am working right now. Graduated from BIT, Mesra in 2021, but started working alongside my graduation coz of COVID.

AMA - Working in Founder's Office from past 3 years.

Founder’s Office

1. LinkedIn: connection request never gets accepted
2. Email: Hard to find emails, have used various email finding tools

How to connect with founders?

Software Developer

How has your experience been, best way to find that job (does cold emailing help?)

Also if you can share your comp, yoe, prev. Compay?

Anyone working for remote US companies from India?

What is the usual selection process for chief of staff / founders office roles? Any tips?

I am already Product Manager. With salary same as avg ISB graduate salary. I am 31 years old. Should I do it ? Or keep pursuing the job hunt ?

Should I do an ISB PGP program?

I have seen VCs usually don’t reply to cold emails and they have a clear rule before investing in any startup. Any VCs out here who can respond to this query. What’s your take over it fellow VC grapeviners ?

What do VCs check before investing in an early stage startup. How to approach VCs and do they really respond to early stage startup founders?

1. I am having a strong problem statement, which is thoroughly validated, along with a business plan, but I am not working or starting it as I lack confidence because I don't have a team in place.

( I am an IIM graduate and currently a product manager - giving these details just to get a sense of my background, which might help in the type of suggestions from your side).


2. How can I find a co-founder/partner/core team member? Please advise me on where to look for co-founders or people that share a similar mindset.

Please help me to navigate through this situation. Thanks in Advance 🙏
