Where is the best place to start your career? 🤔

We asked Hunter Walk, a seed VC at Homebrew and early YouTube employee, what advice he had for new grads starting out. He said: Midstage Startups Are Your Best First Job in Tech.

Here's why:
1. Your work will matter – the company is post product market fit.
2. Growth creates opportunity to lead as new people are joining.
3. The early team + founders will be your tribe for years.
4. Your options are much more likely to be worth something.
5. The reputation effect of being pre IPO/acquisition is real.
