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. Here’s the last one we published; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.
Did you see the finale?
Okay, now that “Game of Thrones” is over, everyone who didn’t watch “Game of Thrones” can finally relax, as they will no longer have to endure being asked if they watch “Game of Thrones.”
In other great news, your weekly list of HBO-quality* tech jobs is below.
*Pssst, that just means really good stuff.

Hot Tip!
Keep a document handy with all of the standard information you’d need on a job application (previous employer contact info, dates of employment, professional references, etc). Print it out and bring it with you to interviews in case you’re required to fill out a form in-person. That way, you’ll be able to finish it quickly without having to dig for what you need, allowing more time to prepare for the questions.
The End
We hope this newsletter was more satisfying than the GoT finale … which non-watchers didn’t see, so that won’t make sense.
Hmmm … OK, how’s this: We hope you find a desk that feels like a royal throne within the stately walls of a top tech house. Again though, that’s for people who watched the show. Gah!
Okay, we hope you have a great week free of Jon Snow quotes. There it is.
Happy job hunting, folks. And as always, find a job anytime at our master jobs list.
