Abundant, affordable talent is one of the best kept secrets of Upstate New York.  Our region has over 100 colleges and universities training more than half a million students each year.  StartFast has strong relationships with top tier institutions like Cornell University, Syracuse University, Rochester Institute of Technology, Rennselaer Polytechnic Institute, Clarkson University and others.  As a result, StartFast teams will be able to:

• Assign specific tasks to a pre-selected cadre of motivated student programmers, designers and digital media/communications specialists.
• Recruit startup talent at a fraction of the cost (and without the competitive pressures) associated with hiring in larger urban centers.

A small number of designer/developer and associate positions are available for students or entrepreneurial individuals interested in working with StartFast teams over the summer.
