View company profile

We are 12twenty, a data-powered, privacy-obsessed early-career talent platform. Our journey began in 2010 with a clear mission: to revolutionize the way university career centers, students, and employers connect and interact. We saw that the most prestigious universities in the world were often relying on outdated software for their career services, creating a disconnect between the incredible talent graduating and the companies eager to hire them. We set out to change that by developing a comprehensive software platform that streamlines the entire career services and job placement process. We believe in making career development and hiring simpler, more equitable, and more efficient for everyone involved, from the first job after college all the way to retirement.

Our platform is designed to empower every user. For students and alumni, we provide the reliable data and tools they need to confidently navigate their job search and make informed career decisions. For university career centers, we offer a powerful system to manage student data, track employment outcomes, and facilitate meaningful employer engagement. And for employers, we provide access to a diverse pool of qualified candidates from top institutions, making it easier to find the perfect fit. We're proud to have become a full-stack career center solution, encompassing everything from job postings and advisor scheduling to event calendars and in-depth analytics. Since going fully remote in 2020, we've embraced the flexibility and connection it brings, fostering a culture where our team can thrive while building quality work we are all proud of. We are passionate about solving the complex challenges in education and recruitment, and we are committed to continuously innovating to set a new standard for connecting students and employers.
