ProStep

Students graduate without practical experience: employers ask for real skills rather than a diploma alone, students do not know where to find part-time work in their field, and the jobs they do find are rarely related to their future profession. According to the deck, 70% of graduates leave without work experience. ProStep gives students tasks from companies on a flexible schedule, a portfolio that builds itself, and a first income as early as the first or second year. Employers get access to young specialists with real skills, quick turnaround on small tasks, and a way to spot future hires through mini-projects. The user journey: sign up and choose a field (design, IT, marketing, copywriting, analytics), take a short skills test, then receive tasks, with review, delivery and payment handled by the platform, a quality rating system and transparent processes.
