This Week in Jobs: Pound the (internet) pavement and check out these 25 tech career opportunities
There's no question the internet has massively changed the way we search for jobs. Back in the 1970s, a typical job search meant scouring classified ads in the newspaper and putting on your best business attire to hand out individually typed resumes in person. This was how it was 51 years ago today on July 29, 1974, just days before the resignation of President Nixon. Little did anyone know that this thing called the internet was quietly brewing. It was on that day that two researchers laid the groundwork for the internet with a paper introducing TCP/IP: the Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol. These two systems work together to move data between computers. Without it, there would be no internet as we know it, and you would still be hitting the pavement and awkwardly asking receptionists face to face if they had any available positions. The internet started simple, by breaking it down into steps, and making sure nothing gets lost along the way. The same rules apply to job hunting. The News Use this interactive map to see where Pennsylvania's $90B in AI and energy money is going — and what doesn't add up. As the debate over artificial intelligence regulation intensifies, the divide over how and whether to rein in the technology is becoming increasingly stark. A company's price during an exit can differ from its valuation during financing, legal experts at Ballard Spahr explain. CEO Chris Wink: We were wrong before about AI killing jobs. Here's the proof. Here's how tech leaders in Delaware are using AI to bring racial equity to education, jobs and tech access. In Q2, Pittsburgh's $600M in VC, mainly driven by AI investments, defied nationwide trends of a capital slowdown. Partner Spotlight Crossbeam is the first and largest Ecosystem-Led Growth platform. The remote-first company acts as an escrow service for data, allowing companies to find overlapping customers and prospects with their partners while keeping the rest of their data private and secure. Companies use this data to sell more effectively, market to the right audiences, build the right products, collaborate with their service partners, generate demand, inform M&A, and more. This has created an entirely new way of doing business called 'Ecosystem-Led Growth' or ELG — and it works: 40% of Crossbeam's customers' closed deals come from their ecosystem.

This Week in Jobs: Shoot for the moon with these 20 tech career opportunities
Let's go back to this day in history, 1962. It was July 22 — John F. Kennedy was president, 'Roses are Red (My Love)' by Bobby Vinton was the #1 song, and NASA launched Mariner 1, the first spacecraft intended to fly by Venus. Mariner 1 was a failure. Due to a tiny coding error, it veered off course and had to be destroyed mid-air. NASA got right back on the metaphorical horse. The failure of Mariner 1 paved the way for Mariner 2, which successfully made it to Venus just a few weeks later. The truth is, big goals often lead to big flops. But each attempt moves you closer to success. Whether you're aiming for a whole new career or a step up, this is your reminder to stay on course and keep launching. The News VC funding plummets in Philly, DC and Baltimore. Economic instability, tariffs and AI are among the reasons experts give for the slowdown. Over a dozen corporations have pledged billions in investments for Pennsylvania data centers needed to keep up the increased energy demands of AI. Why Pennsylvania, why now? How Lancaster County, PA is growing as a tech hub, without losing its rural roots. DC middle schoolers learn robotics over summer break, as the mayor moves to increase public school funding on the local level. A King of Prussia, PA electric vehicle charger startup presses on as the federal government disinvests in clean energy. New research out of DC rated different chatbots for safety, including measuring misinformation, impersonation and hate speech. The highest rated bot scored a B.
