When we think about the job hunt, we tend to think about hard and not fun work, but it doesn't have to be that way! Finding a company you like, telling them why you love what they're doing, and making something small that has value to them will blow away most companies. It will put you in the top 1% of job hunters and more than that it will help you have a lot more fun on your job hunt!
If you’ve ever struggled with the checkout process while trying to buy something online, this company is for you.
Fast is a tech company founded in early 2019 with the mission of making buying online faster, safer and easier for everyone. In two short years they’ve raised over $120 million from investors and grown to over 100 people even through the pandemic.
It all started when their CEO and cofounder, Domm Holland, watched his wife’s grandmother not be able to order groceries online, simply because she couldn’t remember her password. Domm envisioned Amazon’s one-click checkout feature, but for the entire web.
I spoke with Nele Heinemann, Corporate Communications Manager, and Peter Grassi, Director of Talent Acquisition, and—you guessed it—the person to speak with if you’re interested in working there!
As you’ll quickly learn, Fast isn’t just a startup building a great product that has tremendous opportunity. They’re also an inspiring, exciting place to work. It’s even in the company’s legal name! If you want to know what it is, go look in the footer of their website — Fast.co.
While Fast is headquartered in San Francisco, they’re a fully remote, globally distributed team because they know that great talent is not just in the Bay Area. Domm himself is Australian, and Fast employs people all over the world. Peter’s one of the most interesting people I’ve ever talked to about hiring people and building a strong, happy team. He’s constantly looking for people in his blind spots, who might not come from traditional backgrounds.
This philosophy is core to how Fast thinks about giving opportunity and adding people to their team—and I can guarantee it extends to every other department in the company. If you see yourself working at Fast, reach out with a strong pitch that shows why you’re excited about them specifically, how you’d love to contribute, and proof that you’re capable of doing it.
You can connect with Peter, Nele, and the rest of the Fast team on LinkedIn of course, but Peter’s also very active on Twitter and appreciates the non-traditional ways of putting yourself on the radar for a role.

Back in 2019, three friends named Sid, Rudy, and Andy wanted to build a company to empower creators. They spent much of that year talking to every creator they knew about their challenges and needs, and uncovering patterns among them all.
Online creators earn a living by monetizing their products, talents, and content. If you’ve read a blog post, watched videos on TikTok or YouTube, taken an online course, subscribed to someone’s newsletter, or listened to a podcast, you’ve participated what’s called in the Creator Economy.
Throughout our three friends’ conversations, one exciting theme came up again and again: community.
Historically, platforms like YouTube and Facebook have made it harder for creators to own direct access to their fans, which makes it hard for them to scale and create sustainable income.
So, in October 2019, Sid, Rudy, and Andy went heads down in Venice Beach, and started building their MVP.
They got great initial feedback, and have since raised over $5 million from venture capital investors to give them the runway they needed to focus on building for creators for as long as possible.
Listen to learn about their culture and values, what they look for in new hires, and how you can get involved.

This week on Career Crashers Joel is breaking down one of the best tools for building your career, starting a podcast!
Most people imagine you have to be an expert in some field before you can start podcasting, but the reality is podcasting is one of the best ways imaginable to learn and break into a new career.
In this episode, Joel shares recommendations on why and how to start a podcast and how it can accelerate your career!
Sometimes you go for a job and never hear back. It sucks, but it happens, and a lot of the time it’s the norm. If you send a video directly to the hiring manager, it happens a lot less. But you still won’t get every job you pitch. So what happens when you don’t?
If you take the time to create a great pitch, you'll be getting a lot of benefit out of it, even if you don't get the job. Because of the extra effort, research, and creativity, you'll learn, grow, and expand your network. Listen to the episode and find out why!

Over the past two decades, climate change has crept into center stage of the public spotlight for biggest problems to solve on planet earth. Scientists have estimated that, at our current rate of greenhouse gas emissions, it will take less than seven years to increase the global average temperature by 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Today, we’re learning about Trainual: a software tool that companies use to organize their processes and policies into a single business playbook for the entire company. They call it “getting your business out of your brain,” something almost all business owners struggle with.
Cofounders Chris and Jonathan Ronzio started the company in Scottsdale Arizona in 2018, and have since raised 6.8 million dollars and built a team of 55 people, successfully weathering the 2020 pandemic that disproportionately affected their customer base of small businesses.
Trainual is an incredibly empowering and supportive place to work. Some people see early-stage startups as risky career moves, but it’s companies like Trainual that raise the bar for all the others out there. Not just by how they invest in their employees and culture, but by their success in business so far. If you’re genuinely excited about Trainual—their product, vision, and people—show them with a video pitch! Go to Crash.co to get started.
Chris knows exactly what it’s like to be in your shoes — eager to prove yourself, and willing to put in the work to show it.

While there is a lot of concerning stuff happening that is outside of our control, there is still a lot of opportunity that exists within your control.
You can still bring your focus back to the things in your life that you have the power to change.
You can use the time you have to focus on the actions you can do to move forward towards your goals.
In this quick update, Isaac shares a few quick thoughts on how to ground yourself and take positive actions towards your goals during this challenging time.
Looking for a job is hard enough without being rejected by a robot, but as applicant screening software becomes more and more popular your regular job applications will continue to be bluntly discarded before any human lays eyes on it.
Even though these systems are flawed, employers keep using them because applicants send the same generic resumes and not differentiating themselves. Trying to game the robots isn't the answer, changing the game is, and Isaac explains why in this week's audio essay.

Imagine someone who wants to be a professional athlete, but only studies sports and doesn't actually play one. You can bet that they probably won't be very good when they finally start playing.

It's the same with careers.
In this audio essay, Isaac shares why doing one job is a better way to prepare for a totally different job than studying in the abstract and never getting real job experience.

Taking the first step in your career always comes with uncertainty and questions.
"Am I going down the wrong path?"
"Will there be opportunities to advance?"
"What if this isn't right for me?"
When faced with your first real opportunity it's easy to get stuck overthinking it. In this week's audio essay, Isaac shares seven reasons why you shouldn't stress about your first job.
In this audio essay:
-
You probably don't know what you want yet
-
The company is more important than the role (and the industry)
-
You are more than a job title or the tasks
-
You're not learning how to succeed at just one specific task, you'll be learning how to succeed at anything
-
You can't get behind if you're moving ahead
-
What you'll be doing in 20 years doesn't exist yet
-
You're becoming something, not doing something

He was feeling the itch to find a new opportunity, but it wasn't until a serendipitous blog post connected him with a start-up that everything fell into place.

Going to college wasn’t exactly my cup of tea—at first.
Thankfully, I found my place and discovered my passion for design. This is the story of how I

break into the design industry.

• how I transitioned to design school
• how I hacked my way into graphic design studio courses
• my experience at my first design internship
• why you shouldn’t sign NDAs
• how I won my first real design job
• why you shouldn’t lie about your skills—and just learn them before the question even comes
up
• how I broke into the professional design industry
• the AIGA Phoenix Portfolio Review at ASU
• why you should follow up asking about job listings you see online
• how you should think about unpaid internships
• 12 more lessons from my journey so far

from one of the most prominent radio hosts and podcasters out there: Ira Glass of This

- Forgetting about finding your passion as you start a career, and focusing on not doing stuff you hate

This week, in the season one finale, Isaac shares some thoughts on the state of job searches and how you can set yourself apart.
People are relying on incredible expensive degrees, which signal little, and are spending more time than ever on applications, but can't find jobs because no one stands out.
The average job posting attracts two hundred and fifty resumes, of those applicants four to six will get interviews, and only one gets the job.
There are better signals than a college degree and there is a better way to stand out and win a job.
