Helping Postdocs and PhD's find the right job

A Video-Based job search and networking platform that helps you to match with the perfect job

Are you a Postdoc or PhD looking to make a memorable first impression with potential employers? We are a new tech startup helping researchers and academics highlight their expertise and acievements through short, polished video presentations. By going beyond traditional CVs, we help you connect with recruiters who have open positions in your field, fast-tracking your route to a fulfilling career

Why Video Presentations?

Capture Attention Immediately

A text-based CV does not always convey the full extent of your capabilities or passion for your work. Video presentations let you communicate your ideas, enthusiasm, and unique perspective in a captivating way that resonates with employers

Stand Out from the Crowd

Competition for academic and R&D roles is intense. A concise, compelling video clip of your research, topic of interest, and/or commentary can give you the competitive edge you need to shine in a crowded field of applicants

Demonstrate Communication Skills

Employers value researchers who can articulate complex ideas clearly. By sharing your research, topic of interest, and/or commentary on video, you show recruiters how adept you are at communicating, teaching, and persuading - skills essential for success in academia and industry alike.

Make Memorable Connection

Video creates a personal touch that makes it easier for recruiters to remember you. Let your passion for your field show through your voice, your facial expressions, and your real-time explanation of your work

Real Success Stories

"Before using the platform, I spent months sending out my CV with no response. After uploading my video presentation, I had three interview requests in a week. My video helped recruiters see my passion for my research and how it fits into their goals."

"Seeing the person behind the research made all the difference. We were confidnet in Sarah's technical skill set, but her clear, enthusiastic communication style sold us on her being a perfect for our team."
