2. Summary
We're building a 21st-century sustainable
economy in which all people can build careers
that serve humanity, the planet and
themselves. Our multi-platform model will
reform the recruiting industry while placing
young professionals in meaningful jobs,
internships and study abroad programs.
3. The Problem
• Current economic model is unsustainable.
• Hundreds of thousands of young green professionals
don’t know where to find jobs and internships.
• Tools to help green companies find talent are inefficient
and cost ineffective.
• Information about the green sector is scarce and
disorganized, even in university career centers.
4. The Solution
• A combination of in-person and online recruiting.
• One-stop shop: jobs, internships and study abroad.
• Public profiles: a searchable talent database.
• Industry-specific networking luncheons and career fairs.
• A leading hub for information to help job-seekers and
companies understand trends in the green economy.

Be crisp. Tell the story. How can companies find employees without us? Less words, more images! Let images tell the story. Do I want an activist for this job, or a highly skilled person? Address why the combination of skill and passion is better then just skill. "almost all MIT students get their job at the MIT job fair" how do we show up there? for investors - its all about the value proposition. It's not about how green we are, but ultimately how profitable they are. why are they doing better investing in GreenLink vs other alternatives incorporate feedback bac more pictures, less words. green tech jobs visuals - wind tech, bicycle production ,zip car nike (complete shoe disassemble) Put more Energy into it! Jump outs! Use the flock of interns to help justify the need. You have 15 bloggers? what, thats pretty awesome! We are the first to... The network is hugely valuable. HOLY GOD. these guys are utilizing the network. Name drop the companies that have done this, and how this has made a world of difference.
