The Harvard MBA says:

We interrupt the regularly scheduled programming of this blog for the following announcement: I’m hiring.

In addition to all the other benefits, whomever I hire will get to ask me all the questions they want on a daily basis!  And if you do a good job for me, I’ll write you a heck of a recommendation letter for when you apply to HBS.


I’m looking to hire a marketing manager to work closely with me on launching creative outbound marketing campaigns and programs for PBwiki.  I would really love your recommendations on good people who might fit the bill.PBwiki is a leader in hosted collaboration solutions for teams and organizations.  PBwiki hosts nearly 600,000 wikis, its revenues are growing 400% per year, and I was one of the first outside investors in the company, so you can see that I really believe in this opportunity.  PBwiki’s other investors include Ron Conway and Mohr Davidow Ventures.

Whoever I hire will have the opportunity to prove their marketing skills by building on PBwiki’s existing reputation and millions of users, and adding their own special oomph.  He or she will be working with me on a daily basis as my right hand man or woman, and will have plenty of opportunities to shine.

PBwiki is located in San Mateo, halfway between Silicon Valley and San Francisco, and employees receive the usual baker’s dozen of perks, including all the free food they can eat, gym memberships to work off the excess pounds from eating that food, weekly massages, and a grand piano that mysteriously appeared in the company’s lobby one day.  We will pay for relocation.
