We've done our best to group opportunities for ease of navigation, but many of our jobs defy strict categorization, so it may be worth your while to
scan all of our categories. Also, please keep in mind positions are grouped by type of role, not by type of company, and often opportunities are filled too quickly to even make it to our job board. More info about our categories.
In terms of the types of companies we work with, the vast majority of our clients are in new media and Internet technology. And other than a few anomalies, the rest consist of the design, PR and ad shops shaping the new media economy.
NY jobseekers, be sure to keep your eyes on the NY job board
as our newest office continues to ramp up -- meanwhile, we encourage you to check out San Francisco's and Los Angeles' open opportunities to get a general sense of what you can expect when we really get rolling.
And for Beantown residents or folks migrating in that direction, keep an eye out for BrainTrust/Boston, set to open for business in mid-Fall 2000. [details]
