Hi all, Doing a bit of catch-up here in posting some companies from my list.

  1. Thinkific (or similar company) - I have a background working in higher education, so a company like this appeals to me.

  2. Zwift (or similar company) - this company operates in the fitness industry, they do not seem to hire from my country so I'll have to expand my search a bit more to find other companies in health/wellness/fitness.

  3. Logitech/Streamlabs (or similar company) - more of a tech focused company that has fun products/services and hopefully would in turn be a fun environment to work in.

What was a bit of a surprise to me was thinking about industries I was passionate about to expand my list of companies (and not just working off job boards). For example, I cycle and used to run a fair bit, so that directed some of my search towards companies involved in health/wellness/fitness. Some of their job postings might never hit the job boards I often look at.

I do want to keep working on my list and updating it, but I have a good start.

Oh, Zwift is cool. Good call. I see they have some internship programs too..

Any other companies in the fitness industry you came across? That is a direction I didn't think of for some reason (but am very interesting in).

So I don't have a very flushed out list yet, there are the regulars (e.g., Nike), but I am going to learn a bit more towards health & wellness companies and see what I come up with!
