The whole story behind founding Huzzle & our Philosophy 💚

‍Let’s face it, searching for graduate jobs and internships can be overwhelming. Unsurprisingly, 81% of students experience high career anxiety levels.

‍This is because the current system is ineffective. The moment students begin university, they’re pressured to make career decisions. It’s implied that to secure a top graduate job, you must start working towards this early by applying for relevant spring weeks and internships.
‍

‍The issue is, at this point, most students don’t know what career is right for them. This pressure only makes them feel less prepared than their peers, who seemingly already have their careers mapped out. As a result, these students tend to follow conventional paths like consulting and finance, and unsurprisingly, many struggle to find fulfilment, with one-third of Brits unhappy in their careers. 

‍We founded Huzzle because we believe you deserve a better way to explore your options and find your true calling. We know you need more than just a job search platform. You need a place that nurtures exploration and self-discovery. 

‍Unfortunately, other job apps don’t care about you. You use their platform to find a job, and that’s it. Huzzle is different. We want to help you throughout your entire journey. We want to empower you with the experience and knowledge to make informed career decisions. We provide personalised recommendations from over 4,000 entry-level opportunities and connect you with more than 150 UK student societies, helping you explore different career paths and connect with like-minded individuals.

‍We’re not lying when we say we put students first. On other platforms, the jobs you see aren’t based on what’s right for you. Instead, it’s based on which companies have the largest marketing budget. That’s why bigger companies hog the spotlight, making smaller gems difficult to uncover. 

‍Not on Huzzle! We envision a future where job platforms operate based on merit. Much like Airbnb’s marketplace system, where hosts are ranked based on their ratings, the companies that rise to the top of Huzzle will be those that provide employees and applicants with the best experience. This type of system will incentivise employers to treat graduate employees better and provide the best application process possible, including faster response times and personalised feedback. Now, that’s something worth working towards.

‍So, what’s our philosophy in a nutshell? It’s all about revolutionising the student job app market to empower you to unearth your true potential. Huzzle is the future of job search. A student job app that actually cares about students.

‍
Together, we’ll create a future where self-discovery and authentic connections lead to extraordinary careers.
