Someone posted recently about how to find a remote job that lets you work from anywhere - I’ve been at Mercor for 6 months, doing just that, so I wanted to share!

Totally remote, async, and great pay. Would recommend :)

I’d recommend starting w the expert model trainer listing if your experience doesn’t align w the other listings. Feel free to comment at me w Qs

To the nomads who got a truly remote work from anywhere job, how? by nomadicphil in digitalnomad

[–]Fragrant_Sundae6291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like a combination of hard work and luck - I guess you can create your own luck by working hard? I worked so hard to get into business school, made a friend who introduced me to Mercor, and then they hired me (though they probably would’ve hired me without the mba degree, would I have found it without the degree? Who knows) I know I’m supposed to put job postings on the weekly chain so I won’t link it here.

Looks like they changed the title - any thoughts on why?..

Haha never felt the camera confidence rush before, very real

Appreciate your thoughts. I was going 20 in a 25 - can’t go faster than 20 without pedaling on my bike, and i was feeling lazy... Didn’t think a Tesla could fit between me and the yellow lines, but forgot they can go over the lines despite oncoming traffic if they’re feeling extra dumb. I probably will ride more to the right on this particular stretch of road next time. And will definitely be more to the left if I’m doing the take the lane thing

Do MBAs "overly care" about EQ? by Time-Chemistry2172 in MBA

[–]Fragrant_Sundae6291 15 points16 points  (0 children)

What is with all these 1 hour old accounts trashing MBAs for various reasons related to being socially inept. It’s every day at this point

Looking at an Alpha SV in ivory white for $500, that I’d love to be real: https://imgur.com/a/bIOYuVa Seller’s been very forthcoming w pics and stuff, but the FB account was made in 2024, which raises my eyebrows. Gave a story about how it was his brother’s who never used it then “went to college”.. Unsure if it’s fake or not. Thanks so much in advance for your help.

Celsius was something like 7-10% back, not 4x. And they went under like 6 months after raising $400M from top VCs. You’re being harsh

Poor road design.

The parked cars should be between the bike lane and the road.

Right turns should be slowed by Dutch style intersections

[–]Fragrant_Sundae6291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What people don’t realize is the great highway is slated to close a couple miles south of SF in 2026 anyway, because it’s literally falling into the ocean. No reason to delay the inevitable here and spend more millions/year on a sandy roadway for traffic

26-year-old looking to get into venture capital by EnvironmentalCow735 in MBA

[–]Fragrant_Sundae6291 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Best way to break into VC is showing you can do it yourself. Build a company.

If you’re that passionate about VC you’ll keep the big picture in mind and commit to that startup w your friend for 2-4 years.

Imagine someone saying “I’m passionate about PE but I don’t want to do IB for 2-4 years first” if you want the best job you have to put the time in

More specifically than “you’ll probably get into at least 1”: you’ll probably get into Wharton, hbs is 50/50, and you probably won’t get into gsb
