Problem Statement
The MIT internship and job-placement process are very different from other schools. Often MIT students often go to interviews with little information as to what the interview process entails or what the normal tasks are for the position. Instead students rely on a career fair marketing pitch or word of mouth reviews that only cover a small sample of all available positions. This leads to:
- Students doing interviews for positions that they wouldn't actually want
- Students ignoring a candidate positions due to lack of peer reviews
- Telephone-style reviews or jobs and the interview-process instead of primary source articles from people who held the position previously
- Employers seeing less of the qualified pool of possible applicants
Target Users
MIT Students:
- Seeking information about internships
- Seeking information about post-graduation jobs
- Posting a description of the interview process for an internship or job
- Posting information about an internship or job they have previously held
Proposed Solution
Jobious solves these problems creating a web portal distinct from the MIT CareerBridge that allows for community-driven reviews of both the MIT interview process and
