What career event organizers say about us

We are really impressed by how the team lets participants experience a similar buzz and energy as at in-person events. With its mix of interactive formats and clean design, the tool has enabled us to run virtual events that are incredibly high-touch and has allowed our students and partner companies to forge meaningful connections. The team is dedicated to their platform – and to their customers! We have received excellent support at all times, making our online career fairs a great success.

Heike Hülpüsch

Director of Career Center at WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management

It is an excellent platform for hiring events and the virtual recruitment services we offer our business clients. Our businesses that have attended our events on the platform have commented how much they enjoy the features offered by the platform especially the ease of conducting interviews by video and the opportunity to brand their company. The more we use the platform the more we are discovering ways to capitalize on the many features. We look forward to hosting Industry-focused roundtables on the platform early next year. And the personal attention provided by having our own Customer Success Manager, Max Alderson, to assist every step of the way, has been nothing short of top-notch!

The feedback from the various business units as well as the participating students shows that the new virtual format and platform have been very well received. We were able to efficiently attract new interns through the virtual event. We plan to continue using the platform for future virtual events at Porsche SE.

The platform provides a great opportunity for external stakeholders to gain insights into your company. That’s also the reason why we came up with Inside ABOUT YOU - to share the company culture, insights, give an authentic presentation about what it’s like working at ABOUT YOU.
