Hello, Data Geek.

Today I want to give you some quick advice here: Use a “pick and shovel approach” to your job search today.

I know you should be wondering what I mean by that, so let me explain it.

A “pick and shovel approach” to job search is very simple:

Take a role in a company where its services are foundational for other companies, where its services are booming and growing every single month.

Of course, there are some exceptions to this rule, especially after the recent layoffs at Amazon Web Services, Meta, IBM’s Red Hat, and many others.

Many companies are pivoting their services to AI in some form, and I firmly believe that the best company positioned to grow exponentially from today to the future is one and one only: NVIDIA.

If you read any news related to AI, all paths are redirected to Nvidia in some way.

And if you read about every AI partnership, Nvidia is present in some form:

• NVIDIA and Google Cloud Deliver Powerful New Generative AI Platform, Built on the New L4 GPU and Vertex AI
• AWS and NVIDIA Collaborate on Next-Generation Infrastructure for Training Large Machine Learning Models and Building Generative AI Applications
• Adobe and NVIDIA Partner to Unlock the Power of Generative AI
• Ampere, NVIDIA Extend AICAN Gaming Platform Ecosystem
• Shutterstock Teams With NVIDIA to Build AI Foundation Models for Generative 3D Artist Tools

And this is just the beginning. The potential is there.

So: GET A JOB AT NVIDIA ASAP IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE.
