challenges

Target audience: pain points

Collegiate student-athletes participate in an organized competitive sport sponsored by the educational institution in which they are enrolled. Student-athletes are full-time students and athletes, training for many hours per week in addition to their studies.

The vast majority of collegiate student-athletes do not become professional athletes after graduation. Because they have dedicated so much time and energy to their sport, many of them struggle to launch into meaningful careers after their sports career comes to an end.

Solution

Problem resolution: PodiumX

Xtra Point Group came to us with the idea for career preparation and hiring platform – Podium X. With Podium X student-athletes can easily create stand-out CVs and find fitting jobs.

The major idea of the platform that differentiates it from other solutions is that vacancies match with users’ profiles on a comparison of their skills with job descriptions. Due to this matching mechanism, simply put, the job searches for candidates, not vice versa.

Matching mechanism

The matching mechanism is based on the analysis of the user’s skills. The system matches the personal profile of students with vacancies by 5 criteria identified in the Skills Assessment. If the system detects matches by 4 criteria, the student will be notified about the matching with a job post.

[04]

External application

To avoid losing users PodiumX has an external application that opens as a pop-up form when students apply for the vacancies on other websites. With this form, students can send messages and CVs directly from PodiumX.
