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.


For those unaware, today is National Pretzel Day.

In case you were wondering, the invention of the pretzel is thought to be tied to the Catholic church, when ingredients like meat, dairy and eggs were prohibited during Lent. The treats grew in popularity, to the point where they were handed out by monks to their pupils as a reward for answering questions correctly.

All this is a roundabout way to say, maybe you deserve a treat today for doing your best. Grab a pretzel and some mustard, and check out today’s job postings.
