Career Advice: What Smart Young People Need to Know

  • By Bill Conerly

Got a bright young person in the family?  If so, steer him or her to Marc Andreessen’s blog, where he has a series of posts with career advice.  Start here, then go here, and then here.

Looking back on my own career, which I’ve conducted without the benefit of Marc’s advice, I’ve been at my best when I was (inadvertently) following his guidelines.  One of my sons turned me on to Marc’s blog, and I’m forwarding the link to the other son.  Highly recommended.

We asked Bill Conerly to look at one of the major factors limiting the growth of our business. He pulled together data from a wide range of sources, as well as his own extensive business knowledge, to give us an insight into when conditions would improve and how we could be ready to capitalize on better times. He did so in a straight forward, easy to understand manner. A year later it was clear that things had evolved just as he had forecast. Ever since then he’s been my go-to guy on how the e…
