Student Career Outcomes
33% got job through PeopleGrove
Only an estimated 20% of all available jobs are posted publicly (80% are given to those “in the know”). With PeopleGrove, 33% of students are offered an internship or full-time job directly through the platform.
Leverage alumni expertise for student career navigation
Personalized career support
With PeopleGrove, schools give students multiple opportunities to build their professional network. Informal and formal mentorship, plus connections to alumni informed by AI and machine learning, allows career offices to personalize support by major and interest.
Empower career staff with the ability to scale outreach & services
Starved for time hand-matching students to careers or mentors? PeopleGrove leverages AI technology to make powerful, personalized recommendations. And with multiple, dynamic resources for career education and career exploration, plus a scientific career survey for undecided students, it’s easier to serve students one-to-many.
Professional networks & first destinations
With as many as 80% of jobs going unposted, getting an opportunity is too often “all about who you know.” That puts first generation learners and underserved groups behind. PeopleGrove connects students to mentors, networks, job boards, making access to careers more equitable.

Carer services platform features
“Not every student has the luxury of having lots of social capital. PeopleGrove provides an instant network to students that they didn’t have before.”
“Talent is evenly distributed. Opportunity is not. You leverage your network to help those that are coming behind you. And that’s one of the reasons we chose PeopleGrove as a partner. Networking can be very intimidating—especially to an 18, 19, and 20-year-old who doesn't have the social capital [or] confidence. If we teach them how to network…confidence builds.”
