Grow Your Future
Transform your talent pipeline into a
pathway for prosperity.
Recruit Smarter
Stop competing over a small pool of graduates. Partner with us, and access untapped reservoirs of talent while empowering under-resourced students to flourish.
Reach Talent Earlier
Build brand awareness by easily sharing resources and opportunities with high school and college students outside your core schools.
Inform young people about your industry long before they’re looking for jobs; inspire them to explore roles they may not have heard of.
Activate Your Employees
Cultivate relationships with more young people by inviting employees to “back” students.
Participants will spend 10 mins/week using our platform to help young people build the skills and connections they need to deliver immediate value as new hires.
Low-Risk, High-Impact
Wasting time? Not our thing. Any Backrs-sourced applicant is guaranteed to be a high-intent candidate who meets your requirements and has a >25% chance of being interviewed.
That’s fewer rejections for you and better odds for students. Plus: You only pay us for hires.
We Prioritize Fit
Through school and youth org partners, we recruit committed students representing the full spectrum of economic, geographic, and ethnic profiles into our community.
Then, we invite select employers offering desirable jobs in each industry to engage with them, maximizing the value our ecosystem delivers to everyone who’s a part of it.
Backrs Students Are:
Dynamic
150,000+ students nationwide through our partners, growing to ~3mm by 2026.
Driven
1,600+ high-performing, under-resourced scholars nominated by their institution.
Diverse
Disproportionately first-gen, middle-to-lower income, and nonwhite.
