RippleMatch
The current status quo of finding a first job is broken: Traditional career services and job boards with millions of postings aren’t very helpful, and figuring out where to begin your career is a difficult and overwhelming decision. It’s also not a fair contest. For many Gen Z candidates, opportunity is limited based on where they attend school and their personal networks. RippleMatch is changing the way Gen Z finds work.
Our recruitment platform leverages AI to automate inbound applicant review and outbound sourcing, matching candidates to the right roles and eliminating the most time‑intensive parts of the recruitment process for both sides. Leading employers leverage RippleMatch to build diverse, high‑performing teams and Gen Z job seekers across the country trust RippleMatch to launch and grow their careers.
Since launching RippleMatch from a college dorm room in 2016, we’ve raised $88 million in venture funding – including from prominent investors like Goldman Sachs – helped tens of thousands of users find jobs, expanded to 1,700+ colleges & universities, and brought on hundreds of leading employers as customers (such as EY, eBay, MongoDB, and more). Our tight-knit lean team of talented people work hard, celebrate wins, and care deeply about changing the way finding a job works.
