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). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.
Let’s go back to this day in history, 1962. It was July 22 — John F. Kennedy was president, “Roses are Red (My Love)” by Bobby Vinton was the #1 song, and NASA launched Mariner 1, the first spacecraft intended to fly by Venus.
Mariner 1 was a failure. Due to a tiny coding error, it veered off course and had to be destroyed mid-air. NASA got right back on the metaphorical horse. The failure of Mariner 1 paved the way for Mariner 2, which successfully made it to Venus just a few weeks later.
The truth is, big goals often lead to big flops. But each attempt moves you closer to success. Whether you’re aiming for a whole new career or a step up, this is your reminder to stay on course and keep launching.
