💻 What we're looking for
We're exhibiting at FATE, the Finance & Accounting Tech Expo, at the Javits Center in New York, and we're looking for one sharp, outgoing Startup Expo Ambassador to be the first face finance leaders meet at our booth.
A strong fit for accounting, finance or business students who want two days on the expo floor with the CFOs, controllers and finance leaders they may one day work for.

- Nov 19 (Thu): on site, 7:30am to about 3:30pm (doors open at 8am, expo closes 2:30pm, then booth teardown)
