Guide to informational interviews — conversations with someone working in a field you want to know more about, which the article stresses are not job interviews. Covers how to find people through your network, LinkedIn and job fairs, what the conversation can reveal about a job's day-to-day duties and responsibilities, and how to follow up with a thank-you note. Includes lists of occupational and functional questions to ask.
Explainer on the "PayPal Mafia" — the former PayPal founders and managers, including Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and David Sacks, who went on to start or back companies such as Tesla, LinkedIn, YouTube, SpaceX and Palantir. The article traces the term to Fortune's 2007 cover story and PayPal's $1.5 billion sale to eBay in 2002, then describes the group's influence in the Trump administration — including the Department of Government Efficiency and the cryptocurrency and AI czar role — and its push for lighter tech regulation and pro-crypto policy.
Event calendar for Tech Week, a series of city-based tech weeks with meetups, panels and demo nights hosted by startups and investors.
Why I recommend it: The page blocked the automated check, so this description comes from the title. Most listed events need registration; check each event for its price.
Global community of AI engineers, founders and builders offering insights, learning paths, tools, use cases and an annual AI Builders Global Conference.
Advice on building a productive relationship with a recruiter: how to communicate your goals, stay responsive, keep your resume current, and treat the recruiter as a long-term contact rather than a one-time transaction.
Free Substack newsletter from Andrew Yeung on people, events and trends in tech and business, with tens of thousands of subscribers.
Career site by Austin Belcak teaching job-search strategies built around networking and direct outreach rather than online applications. Free articles, templates, and tools; paid courses and coaching also offered.
memQ is a quantum networking company combining quantum science, materials and photonics to build extensible quantum network architecture for industry, research and government.
Why I recommend it: This is a company's own site, so read it as marketing. memQ sells quantum networking hardware and services; nothing here is a free learning resource beyond an overview of the field.
A reputation and vouching tool for the startup ecosystem — founders, investors and operators vouch for people they have actually worked with, so warm intros carry more weight.
Why I recommend it: Pricing is not published on the site, so treat the free tier as unconfirmed until you sign up. A vouching network is only as good as who else is on it.
Build a public showcase profile of your skills and experience, and search other people's profiles — a place to be found by employers and collaborators.
Why I recommend it: Sign-up asks for no payment and no price is listed, but the site has payment tools installed, so paid extras may exist. Only share details you're comfortable making public.
Psychologist and New York Times bestselling author on friendship and self-worth. Her blog posts on making adult friendships, belonging and self-esteem are free to read, and there is a free four-practice guide in exchange for your email.
Why I recommend it: useful for the part of career-building nobody teaches: making real professional friendships rather than 'networking'. The blog is free; the books and the speaking are paid, and the free guide costs you an email address and an ongoing list.
A newsletter for university students and early-career professionals on building a career deliberately: networking with low effort, building a portfolio when you are not an artist, reputation-building as a young professional, early-career growth rules, job hunting after graduation, and working in and around AI. Launched in early 2026. Every issue in the recent archive is free to everyone, and the whole archive is open.
Why I recommend it: Best for the first few years of a career, where the advice gap is widest — the pieces on networking and on building a portfolio without being a designer are the ones to start with. It is one writer's experience rather than researched guidance, so treat it as a practitioner's notes: take the habits, check any claim about hiring against a source that publishes its numbers.
A mentorship platform that matches you with a mentor working in your field — design, product, engineering, marketing and more. Signing up and your first session are free.
Why I recommend it: Free to join and the first session is free; ADPList also promotes paid plans and some mentors charge, so check the mentor page before booking. Free-tier value: browse mentors, book open calendar slots, ask for a portfolio or interview review.
A free community of 50,000+ women from university through early career in tech. Membership gives you a peer network, mentorship, events, and access to partner companies that recruit from the community. Open to everyone, centered on women in tech.
Why I recommend it: Free to join. Strongest if you are a university student or in your first few years of work — the value is the people and the recruiting pipeline, not the content library.
