Top 10 startup career advice posts from the past year

We’ve been live for about a year so I thought it was high time to share the most popular content on StartupCareerAdvice.com.

When I looked at the list I wasn’t surprised to see that advice on negotiating startup job offers was at the top of the list – and made up 3 of the top 10! On the other hand, I was a little surprised to see this networking tip from Sequoia Capital’s Roelof Botha in the Top 5.

OK, enough from me. Here’s the most popular content from the last year. Enjoy (and more importantly, use!) it.
