Overview
Kabir & Matthew (the founders) set out with a hunch that young people were getting increasingly tired of working in large corporates early in their career and that start-ups could provide a great alternative. Having now placed 250 alumni in roles, we have proved that beyond doubt. Applicants apply in their 1000s, we handpick the most exceptional candidates, give them training, and then we flip the job hunt on its head by inviting founders to come in and pitch their companies & roles in 15 mins over Zoom to the candidates. Candidates then get fast-tracked to interview and are supported in their role via mentorship, a vibrant community, training, and more. With only a small team, we have grown revenue at 3x for each of the last 2 years, have had about 50,000+ people apply to Jumpstart, and ~100s of start-ups approach us. Unlike most startups, we are profitable and we’ve done all of this without having to take on any external investment.
There are two things that we get REALLY excited about:
- We can apply this model across many other functions & levels of seniority.
- Our alumni is jam-packed with the next generation of entrepreneurs.
