Why GradLeaders?
Utilize Our Fully-Embedded Solution or Your Existing Video Meeting Tools
Our virtual solutions make it easy for everyone to use, no matter the virtual platform or device. While other vendors are just providing links to Zoom, Skype, Teams, etc. within their platform, our solution is built right into GradLeaders. If a company wants to use their existing technology, they can still do that too! But with the GradLeaders solution, you’ve got everyone interacting with the same secure, school-branded platform built specifically for career services and student recruitment. Plus it’s the same tool students and employers are already using to post/search jobs, sign up for advising, register for career fairs — eliminating the hassle of multiple technologies and multiple platforms.
Looking for an easy way to host a virtual career fair, company presentation or workshop this year? Want to simplify virtual advising and online career service management? Whether used as part of our complete career services platform or as a stand-alone module, GradLeaders Connect makes it easy for everyone involved. We’d love to not only show you a demo and share best practices we learned from our school partners’ virtual events last year.
