Join us for NYC UNCUBED 2017 November 6th & 9th at Industry City, Brooklyn Bowl, & Wythe Hotel http://nyc.uncubed.com/ Uncubed’s mission is to make work human. We believe the best career opportunities aren’t found in classified ads – they’re built in a community where people learn, interact, and exchange ideas. We also believe that access to great careers shouldn’t be restricted to just a few. Uncubed is built on those beliefs: a video-first job platform where anyone can gain skill-building insights directly from innovative companies. It’s a powerful way to both acquire skills and to find new jobs – companies on Uncubed are hiring for open roles across digital skillsets. We’ve assembled a community of highly talented developers, designers, marketers, and other minds interested in learning from practitioners at the most innovative companies. It’s free – join now. In addition to our video platform, our Uncubed Daily publication gives you a daily brief on tech, and our events get you out in the real world (with humans). Interested in leveraging video content for your company? Contact [email protected]
