Chief of Staff Hackathon - NYC edition
On Feb 15th, we’re launching the 5th edition of the Chief of Staff Hackathon.
What is a Chief of Staff Hackathon? It's a non technical business challenge. Top operators solve real founder problems, in real time. You get the brief on the spot. You think, structure, decide, and execute with 2 hours to crack the case. No rules, just be bold.
At the end, winners gain exclusive access to job opportunities and direct interviews with CEOs.
Who’s behind it?
Orbit is a Chief of Staff marketplace for venture backed CEOs.
What to expect?
A live test of adaptability, clarity, and execution
Move fast, think sharper, act bold
No limits, just you, your mind, and founder-grade problems
Who can APPLY: Chiefs of Staff, operators, engineers, finance professionals, and grads ready to prove they can think at C-level altitude.
CEOs & Founders? If you are hiring a Chief of Staff or elite operators, this will be the strongest talent signal you’ll see all year. DM us or comment “Interested.” We are opening a small number of co-partner slots to meet finalists and fast-track interviews.
