Exploring Unexpected Careers in STEM and Innovation With WayUp Office Hours
WayUp presents: Exploring Careers in STEM and Innovation
What does it mean to work in STEM? If you’re in college right now or keeping an eye on media, it seems like all anyone can talk about is working for a startup or a Silicon Valley tech giant. But these aren’t your only options.
Innovation, analysis, and a logical approach to problem solving (hallmarks of the STEM skill set) are useful at all types of companies and in a ton of different roles. Skincare and beauty companies need scientists and engineers. Banks need programmers and data scientists. Every industry is being disrupted by STEM innovations, and there are so many different ways to be a part of it.
For our most recent Office Hours—WayUp’s signature, totally FREE panel event—we gathered some of the brightest minds in some of the most unexpected and interesting roles in STEM to tell you how to build your dream career.
NYC college students were invited to attend the WayUp X L’Oréal USA event at our Flatiron district headquarters in NYC. Check out the livestream now to see what surprising insights, funny-yet-inspiring stories, and more these guests shared with an audience of college students just like you.

What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
"Quote copy Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exe"
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
