Follow on Google News | Blue Chip Career Launches Website by Carousel30Blue Chip Career, an online mentoring platform for job seekers, recently announced the launch of its newly developed and redesigned site by Carousel30 using the Sitecore CMS platform.
By: Carousel30 "As a young professional, I noticed that networking was difficult and awkward and that it was hard to find the 'right person' to speak to," Chris Carey, the company's founder said of his motivation to transform the traditional mentoring paradigm. "After realizing this challenge, our team developed a mentor network which rivals that of a top business school, yet is easily and comfortably accessible to all." Blue Chip Career’s online mentor network levels the job search playing field by making top executives accessible. The company’s diverse network includes managing directors at bulge-bracket investment banks, successful entrepreneurs and venture capital investors, team leaders at top consulting firms, corporate executives, and senior private equity and hedge fund investors. Through the Blue Chip Career platform, any job seeker can connect with an experienced mentor for personalized job search guidance. Blue Chip Career approached Carousel30 with two challenges: to develop and execute a digital strategy for its site and to help simplify its mentor matching system for its clients and administrators. Carousel30 met the first challenge with a team approach, bringing together its marketing, creative and technology teams to develop the strategy, information architecture and wireframes, design, technology roadmap and site development. The second challenge was addressed by Carousel30’s technology team who developed the seamless automation of mentor matching on the website. Using a custom-built matching algorithm, site users are automatically matched to mentors based on information submitted during the registration process. It also provides quick matches to unregistered visitors who simply answer what stage in the career development process he or she is in and in what industry they would like to work. The site uses the Sitecore Web content management system, an enterprise-level .NET platform and Carousel30 partner. It also features integration with HasOffers, an affiliate tracking system, Snap Engage, a customer service platform, and Sitecore’s blog feature. About Blue Chip Career Blue Chip Career makes it easy for anyone to connect with top professionals. The company pairs job seekers with executives for one-on-one job search and career guidance. Mission: To improve the career development process through genuine mentoring.
