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.


It’s hot, the days are long, and it’s the perfect time of year to sneak in a power nap. Not to be confused with an hour-plus nap where you wake up groggy and confused, taking a short nap in the day might just be the ultimate work productivity hack.
