I got my first job purely through networking. I went the YC Work at a Startup event. I talked with several CEOs there, and I really connected with Dylan, CEO of Naborly. He told me to email him and we could go grab coffee the next week. I arrived at his office and found myself in what I thought was an initial interview, but after an hour and a half he offered me a job. I had never used any of the technologies my company uses. I've grown so much by working on projects here and I'm eternally thankful that Dylan gave me a shot.
