I am really excited to be here.
Yeah, so the Muse was founded to be the most trusted and beloved place for people to navigate their career.
What does that mean?
It means we function essentially like a marketplace.
We have over 50 million people who use the site every year to find a job, get to that next step, talk to a career coach, get advice, learn a skill, anything that's related to taking charge of your career and sort of living the life that you want.
And then on the other side, we have over 600 companies from Facebook, Dropbox, Slack to HBO, Goldman Sachs, Marriott, businesses large and small.
And we help them with hiring and employer branding.
So the way I like to think about it is, you know, the sort of old way of doing things, because a company could just put up a job description and expect that some of the most talented people in the world are going to line right up.
to come in.
That's no longer the case.
If you want really great people, you've got to compete for them because everybody else wants them to.
And so we help these companies figure out, first of all, what is the story?
What is it that they have to offer great candidates?
How do they survey their top people and understand what are the core elements of their employer brand, their value prop to employees?
Then how do you tell that story through photo and video, through a Muse profile?
We have a lot of different ways companies can do that, especially
kind of once you've gotten these great stories from employees, sharing those to a broader audience.
And then finally, how do you distribute that?
So how do you make sure that anywhere a company is trying to hire, they have the ability to reach those candidates and to get more context and assets in front of those people to help them decide whether working at Goldman Sachs or New York Life or Facebook is the right place for them.
We are more of a SaaS company.
