“Absolutely essential” job search tool

That’s what CareerShift users say

Schools

The exhaustive number of opportunities that our students find across every career path is jaw dropping. CareerShift is instrumental in helping our students see hope for a bright future, and an endless choice of possibilities. The platform is simple to use but extremely powerful.

Students

I have introduced CareerShift to hundreds of our Former Students as a resource to supercharge their career development. I cannot recall a single conversation where we could not help our Former Student identify multiple opportunities. In most cases, they were surprised at the volume of opportunities they identified during a one-hour review.

Professionals

Unlike stereotypical job sites, CareerShift incorporates networking functions, so users can identify and contact individuals within a specific company. I wasn’t bound to a cycle of waiting to hear back from employers - I was given the tools to be in the driver’s seat and contact them myself…I am now a Recruiter for Open Systems Healthcare and without CareerShift it wouldn’t have been possible.
