I started 2 companies in the past 10 years both grew to 10+ employees and $1M-$2M in revenue before crashing. Since my last company closed, I've been looking for work at current tech startups but can't seem to get my foot in the door. Seems like I'm competing with younger candidates with less experience but stops at name brand startups. Any suggestions?
while competition might seem intense, your unique journey brings a wealth of experience that can set you apart. Focusing on self-confidence and revisiting your foundations will allow you to project a compelling narrative. If you're looking to delve deeper into refining your approach, gaining insights, and receiving personalized guidance, seeking coaching or mentorship could be a transformative step. You've already demonstrated your resilience; with the right strategies and mindset, your next success story could unfold within the startup ecosystem. Reflect on past achievements, Embrace the Learning Curve, Reconnect with Your Passion, Consider a coaching or mentor relationship and Leverage your Network are the areas that I would start to focus on first. I'd be more than happy to develop a more comprehensive plan for you that is individualized once we speak further. Feel free to reach out!
