We help students network into their first job.
Nearly half of college graduates struggle with job placement. We fix that with Career Circles—a six-week mentorship program where students practice the skills that actually land jobs.
The model:
- 6 students + 1 trained mentor
- 1 hour per week for 6 weeks
- Structured curriculum: self-assessment, resume building, networking, interview prep, and follow-up
- Real skills, not motivation speeches
The numbers:
- 409 students served across partner schools
- $25 per student to complete the full program
The magic happens in small group discussion. Students show up with real resumes. They practice real answers. They get real feedback from someone who's been through job search before.
We don't tell students what to do. We teach them how to figure it out. That's what we mean by exercising agency.
Each week builds on the last:
| Week | Focus |
|---|---|
| 1 | Self-assessment—what do you actually want? |
| 2 | Research & exploration—where do those jobs exist? |
| 3 | Resume & prep—how do you present yourself? |
| 4 | Networking—who do you need to talk to? |
| 5 | Job applications & interviews—the actual grind |
| 6 | Follow-up & negotiations—what happens next? |
"I was struggling with how to effectively search for jobs and present myself during interviews. My mentor took the time to walk me through effective job search methods and helped me improve my interviewing skills through mock interviews. His mentorship made a real difference in helping me feel career-ready."
"I felt overwhelmed by finding a full-time job and was unsure where to start. My mentor helped me learn the importance of networking and gave me feedback on my personal brand. I gained more confidence in my abilities and in navigating the job market."
"I asked my mentor how to be more noticeable. He told me to reach out to people at the companies I'm interested in and connect with them on LinkedIn. I did it with HubSpot and got an interview. I'm now in the second round!"
We currently work with schools across the country. Our first major partnership is with the Trulaske School of Business at the University of Missouri, where we support 30 Career Circles in their Sales and Customer Service program.
If your school wants to run Career Circles, we handle:
