We are all about you and your success.
Early-career planning is broken. We fix it.
Students today, even from top schools, are finding it increasingly difficult to grab that right first job. Competition is higher than ever as companies race to replace entry-level positions with AI. Meanwhile, most schools fail to prepare students for entering the workforce.
Outset Career Prep was founded by a group of Berkeley alumni with decades of experience recruiting and developing early-career talent. We’re on a mission to help students achieve early career success so they can unlock their potential and generate a positive ROI on college.
