Ever wonder what it’s really like to join a startup right out of college? 👀 At Traba, we’re on a mission to empower the next generation of talent, offering opportunities that challenge, inspire, and prepare you for what’s next. We’re hiring entry-level positions across key business functions. Ready to take the leap?
What I wish someone told me in college: Since I started at Traba, I've left the office every day with my head spinning (in the best way possible). In 5 months, I've travelled to Atlanta and Dallas to push deals across the line, conducted 2nd and 3rd round Traba interviews, led 2 team trainings, and written material for the company LinkedIn page. Yesterday, I got back from McAllen, TX where I was supporting one of our newest customers for their first few shifts with Traba. None of the above are even a part of my core responsibility at the company. Today, almost everyone I know is in some sort of Analyst job, and many of these roles are also awesome (it's not a zero-sum game). You can't go wrong by building a skillset that will be transferable to whatever you decide to do after. The fact that the internship offer comes 1.5 years ahead of its start date is also extremely attractive. If startup offers could match banking and consulting time horizons, I think we would see one of the biggest pre-professional shifts ever among business-oriented college students. Few people work for a startup out of college because the recruiting process does not have the structure or predictability of other cycles. And of course, no Series A company will ever be able to compete with the timelines of huge firms. That's why what people like Ian Feeney and Andy Linder are doing is so important. If TCP and others can continue weaving a sense of structure and confidence into new-grad startup recruiting, it'd be an amazing breakthrough. Around this time last year, I was home for Thanksgiving as a college senior. I knew I wanted to help build a company and have equity in the outcome but I had no clue where to start. So this year, whether you apply to Traba (we're hiring entry-level across all business functions) or simply begin to explore the startup route, just know that this path exists.
