Thanks, Ron. How do you recommend finding such positions? It seems like most jobs that are posted are generally because the company has the funding to pay for a their ideal, fully qualified employee. Also, you can't really just ask for a job a minute after you meet someone at a networking event, and with rent and student loans to pay, I can't work for free (whether in my own startup or for someone else's).

How do I avoid then getting trapped in whatever that industry may be? For example, if I work for a MEMs mfg company in sales, will those skills be easily transferable or will I just have built a network in the MEMs industry that is only useful if I stay in MEMs throughout my career?

Totally agree with the idea, but how do I find them? I've been going to many of the networking events in Boston, and haven't been finding many of those. Most small startups seem to already have the one or two business related people they need (they were co-founders) and are loaded up on exceptional technical people or are a software/web based startup and since I don't have a CS background, I can't help them either.
