You’ll learn interview tips, techniques for mastering the social environment at work, and CYA strategies to protect yourself from unexpected setbacks. The author discusses how to read a room, in a virtual meeting or in real life, and why it’s more important than reading the prospectus.

On this episode of Silicon Valley Insider, Joshua Lee, CEO of Ardius (a Gusto company) discusses how any company that has research and development expenses in technology, science or process can be eligible for significant R&D tax credits.
Ardius has helped companies recover millions of dollars in tax credits from things like research and development that they’ve done in building their product and company, and this money can feel like non-dilutive capital to help fund ongoing operations. This is done by companies of all sizes, but historically has been a very expensive and manual effort, which Ardius is making was faster and easier and automated.
