This directory was published October 2014 and its data were drawn from our October 2014 database. Job hunters need to do many things to get a job - - call all their friends and relatives, answer ads, and send out hundreds, even thousands of letters and resumes in a targeted direct email, direct fax or direct snail mail campaign. Our online databases and directories are designed to help you in that last task - to get your personal cover letter and resume to the venture capital/PE firms that specialize in your field. The Wall Street Journal has noted that venture capital-backed firms add new jobs at a rate of 25% per year. Find jobs in these rapidly growing companies by contacting their venture capital investors. If you are interested in the smaller, more entrepreneurial situation, here¹s your chance to work for the next Google or Apple! According to Robert Litan of the Kauffman Foundation, which specializes in promoting innovation in America: 'Between 1980 and 2005, virtually all net new jobs created in the U.S. were created by firms that were 5 years old or less.'
