Thanks for joining Y Combinator's Work at a Startup and welcome to the YSE network. I'm Ryan and I'm here to help you find your dream job. Y Combinator is an accelerator that has invested in companies like Coinbase, Airbnb, DoorDash, Instacart, and Dropbox. With over a thousand companies on the platform, there's gotta be one right for you.

Three quick tips to get you going:

Number one, check out the company directory. We have filters to filter based on size, based on industry, based on the types of role you're looking for. Use those tools to narrow down the thousand companies to maybe 20 or 30 that might really be interesting to you.

Number two, dig deeper. Take a look at the company profiles and the job descriptions to really get a sense of what the companies are like, what they're trying to build, what the mission is, and whether or not you would be excited to work there.

Tip number three, make sure you apply on the platform. Your message goes directly to the founders, so take a moment to think about what interests you most about that company and why you might be really excited to build the product or to build out the team.

Feel free to get started! My email is right down below, and I'm happy to look at your resume, recommend companies, or do whatever we can do to help you guide your way.

A long time to find a startup? You got this, and we're here with you. Thanks again, and hope to hear from you soon.
