8 weeks
Eight modules. One stage of the founder's process each week.
Weekly 1:1s
Personalized coaching where your work gets pressure-tested.
AI-native
AI woven through every module, the way real operators use it.
Small cohort
Application only. Build alongside people as serious as you are.

Most students send applications and hope. Founders run a process.

The problem

Your first job won't come from a job board.

Career services teaches résumés. AI tools promise automation. None of it gives you the actual playbook for finding work that fits, because the playbook lives with founders and operators who figured it out for themselves.

That's what this program brings. The same process founders use to launch a company, applied to launching you.

How it works

Four things make it work.

01

Workshops, not lectures

A small, application-only cohort that learns by building, and challenges each other along the way.

02

A proven entrepreneurial framework

The same process founders use to launch companies, applied to launching you.

03

AI woven through every module

AI as the working environment, not a topic. You'll use the tools the way real operators use them.

04

Personalized 1:1 coaching

A weekly 1:1 where your work gets pressure-tested and refined.

The program

8 weeks. 8 modules. One clear path.

Each module answers a real question every college student has. Each one ends with a concrete output you keep.

01

Self

Where do I spike?
02

Market discovery

What does the market actually need?
03

Target + AI fit

Which role, which employer, which AI bet?
04

Experiment design

How do I test fit before committing?
05

Story + brand

How does the market understand who I am?
06

Network + pipeline

How do I reach the right rooms?
07

Career math

How does the math work?
08

Board of advisors

Who's helping me think for the long run?

Not a certificate. A method.

You leave with a process you'll run for every career move that follows.

A repeatable method, not a one-time result
Targeted opportunities with proof of what you can do
Real conversations with people in your target industry
A career operating system you take with you: CRM, templates, and all your work
From the founding cohort

Students say it best.

Two weeks ago I was so indecisive I couldn't pick. Now I feel secure in the path I've chosen. What I'm taking away most is to really figure out yourself before you go and do anything.
Senior, Founding Cohort
I'm learning so much more than I had in the three years I've been at college. No professor has ever put this level of getting into it with you. It's never been this personal.
Junior, Founding Cohort
It's such a good group. Everyone is so motivated. Being around these guys, hearing what they're working on and getting their pushback on ideas, is really motivating.
