How To Get A Job At A Startup If You Have No Skills
Amen. I would add, teach yourself almost anything new. Codeacademy, W3 schools, even start a new blog. Then, teach yourself something else.
Great advice here. People frequently ask me about breaking into the start-up scene with non-technical skills. The two pieces of advice I always offer are:
1. Get to know someone
2. Start at the bottom
For my friends, start at the bottom usually means support/office manager/community work, but it can mean entry level sales or being the admin for a higher up as well.
Hubris is the enemy here.
