Let’s face it. Our work life takes up the majority of our day. Many people go to an office, sit there all day and come home with little or no time to network, advance their career or even just relax and unwind. Rameet Chawla, the founder of Fueled Collective, saw a need to “create a collaborative culture for startups with a communal workspace with a focus on mentoring and partnership,” said Gary DeJesus, CMO for the company.

Have you been thinking about exploring new career options? If so, you’re not alone. According to one survey of U.S. workers, 22 percent are planning to change jobs in 2017. The number is even higher among younger employees—with 35 percent of survey respondents between the ages of 18 to 34 anticipating a change of employer.
