Co-Founder @ Handshake - We're Hiring! | Forbes 30 Under 30

2w

2024 marked 10 years of Handshake. It’s been my philosophy since day one that we’ll get where we want to go by stacking days—putting in the best effort you can every day and then waking up to do it again the next day. This is how we approach building our product, too. Stacking wins day after day to hit goals that feel unthinkably big in the beginning. The big difference is that today we’re building for 15 million students and ~1M employers. These products help students find their way in the world, recruiters reach the right talent, and career educators help students launch their career. Check out what we built this year: https://bit.ly/41AHIM7

2024: Our year of “stackable wins” 🚀 At Handshake, we don't just dream about changing how Gen Z starts their career—we ship it. This year was all about stackable wins: meaningful product improvements that build over time to create real value across our three-sided marketplace. We're building more than a job board. We're creating a social network that gets how Gen Z wants to explore, connect, and grow their careers. Every feature and update is a step towards building the future workforce.

5 people are launching their own business with Stack next week! Last week we went live with Melissa Smith's Stack License. We received more than 20 super inspiring applications for executive assistants who want to embark on a their own solopreneur journey. Some common themes we heard: - Wanting more flexibility & freedom - Wanting to take the leap together with someone, it’s scary alone - A LOT of excitement around the package we have put together Finishing up interviews next week & carefully picking the top 5 applicants to embark on this journey together. Excited to share some success stories soon!

Excited to share that Crouton's listing has been approved _for beta_ in Rippling's App Shop! Rippling's developer platform has been one of the most robust I've worked with in the HR space. They have put in some seriously impressive engineering work to enable the next generation of work tech apps. If your organization uses Rippling or you're interested in learning more about Crouton, please reach out to us. We're starting to build out our next cohort of partners.

While many people are critical of Stackoverflow, I think it has quietly helped many of us develop a particular soft skill: the art of asking answerable questions. For example: 1. Stackoverflow encourages us to research well before asking a question. This ensures that we don't ask basic questions that are easily available in the docs or common question that have been previously answered. 2. Also, it discourages us from asking open-ended and poorly-framed questions that seem like a weapon fashioned against the answerer's productivity. 3. Finally, it pushes us to only ask questions that are based on emperically testable questions instead of opinion-based questions. With the decline in stackoverflow traffic, I think we might see a decline in the art/skill of asking good questions the near future. #stackoverflow #productivity #softskills #largelanguagemodels #artificialintelligence

My top tip for founders is getting Superhuman. It must have saved me hours (they tell me 30 hours a month which I am not sure is 100% true but still). I am not sure if I should be happy or distraught about moving 96% faster than other users. Probably helped by my spelling mistakes! #founder #techstack
