1. General Tips

  • Get the information by local source of information, through Churchhill Club, Meetup.com and so on.

  • Utilize twitter, follow people who are influential. Once you do start to follow, it will recommend who to follow, and you will easily be able to expand your follow basis.

  • Be ready to pitch about yourself in 1 minute: Since nobody will be interested just because you are big company or which nationality you are from, “Elevator Pitch” is necessar.

  • Nice to have is a 1 pager to explain about your company and the goal that you have

  • Showing yourself properly: Linkedin is a must have for people working here in the Valley. You must show the best parts about yourself

2. Recommended newsletters
