Efficient Job Search for Students Platform
The world’s first personalized collegiate
career center
Empowering students to take control of their careers and land their dream job.
🤔 Overview
Through its apprenticeship programs, coaching, software tools, and work engagements, this product diversifies the distribution of quality jobs and helps eliminate the Diploma Paradox by providing an avenue for college students to showcase their talents and transform how they find their first jobs by reducing the hiring friction companies face when bringing on entry-level talent.
🧩 Problem
A recent analysis of close to 4 million jobs posted on LinkedIn since late 2017 showed that 35% of postings for “entry-level” positions asked for years of prior relevant work experience. That requirement was even more common in specific industries. More than 60% of entry-level software and IT Services job listings, for instance, required three or more years of experience. In short, entry-level jobs seem not for people just entering the workforce.
Ability is everywhere, but opportunity is not.
💡 Solution
Provide students with a comprehensive platform that enables them to thoroughly evaluate how a job aligns with their interests and skills. This includes application tracking, contact management, and access to a vast database of job opportunities. This platform streamlines the job search process, making it more efficient and successful for users.
