Careerist is a learning platform that trains job seekers for careers in tech and automates their job applications. We provide live classes and adaptive-learning software that facilitate self-paced training. We outsource our live classes to third-party tutors for a small share of the revenue. We partner with small boot camps and high-profile individuals to provide live, job-specific classes for software testing, engineering, DevOps, cybersecurity, support, and sales roles in tech. Part of our secret is that most job seekers need to submit over 100 applications to get a single job offer. We automate that process for them with Robotic Process Automation, which allows us to scale job placements. Techcrunch: "Edtech meets SaaS in Careerist’s job placement learning platform. The startup trains job seekers through live and self-paced training taught by third-party tutors. The adaptive learning software is meant to help candidates prep for tech interviews. Once a candidate is well equipped, Careerist uses automation to help them apply for jobs. The startup doesn’t require tuition until candidates are placed."
