Did you know that in the state of California, you can become a K-12 teacher
without having gone to college? This is true of the "Eminence Credential"!
In order to qualify, you have to be known for having advanced your field in
some way, and get recommended by an employer. Details here:

*About Hack the Network:*
This project is aimed at connecting qualified candidates from
underrepresented groups with job opportunities in tech and tech-related
companies. The goal is to use my networks to upend the current networked
hiring system, by tapping into pools of talent that people in tech don't
normally have access to.
*Here's how it works*:
1. Check out the jobs below. I’ve included links to their application
pages and if you like you can apply to them directly.
2. However, if you feel strongly that you are a good fit for the
position and would like a referral, send me your resume (even if you have
already sent it) with your name, the job title, and the employer in the
subject line.
3. If it looks like you are what the employer is looking for, I’ll email
you to schedule a quick skype call.
4. If we both want to proceed after that discussion, then I will refer
you to my friend to follow on with the application process.
I can’t guarantee that this process will land you a job. However, you’ll
likely stand a better chance than with just a cold contact. Also, I don't
post all of the positions that HTN companies are seeking to fill. So, if
you see a position of interest posted on an HTN company website which is
not in the newsletter, let me know. Please feel free to share this with
friends who are looking for work, potential employers, or organizations
which you think would be interested.
If tech is the future, we should have a seat at the table.

Anybody feel familiar enough with the wiley ways the Indian government
likes to snoop around? I work for a nonprofit that helps local folks fight
destructive dam projects, and though I'm working with an infosec consultant
to create a general policy and guidelines, our Indian office is looking for
someone with experience in the region to help them specifically. If so,
lemme know
