Editor’s note: Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge”). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.


Home sweet home

What would a version of “The Wizard of Oz” staged in Philly look like? Perhaps a mangled HitchBOT greenlights as The Tin Man? Does your favorite halal guy float down in a bubble as Glinda the Good Witch? Maybe the Munchkins are just a bunch of boisterous Eagles fans. And dare I say the beloved Gritty plays dear Dorothy?

This adaptation fosters lots of possibilities. Frankly, that’s because Philly has a lot of personality. Let this city’s sparkle rub off on you and come along as we head down the Yellow Brick Road toward your next job offer.

The News

The concept of “home” is on our mind at Technical.ly this week after reading reporter Paige Gross’s write-up on what an HQ city actually means to Philly growth-stage companies in a remote world. Speaking of growth-stage companies, here’s how some of our Talent Pros clients foster a strong workplace culture.
