Bowsy.com careers

Bowsy is creating a new marketplace using remote study related projects to reinvent how companies manage their graduate recruitment talent pipeline and transform how undergraduate and postgraduate students enhance their job prospects through remote study related project work and tasks.

The platform was launched in Ireland in August 2020 and was awarded Top Tech Startup 2020 at the National Startup Awards in 2020, sponsored by Enterprise Ireland and Microsoft. In addition to this, Bowsy was also recently recognised as one of the top 30 early stage start-ups in Europe by EU-Startups.com and has been featured in the Irish Times, Technews and the Currency.

Bowsy connects students with global businesses to replace traditional part time student work with study-relevant tasks and projects that can be completed remotely.

For employers, Bowsy addresses: (i) inefficiencies and high costs in current graduate recruitment processes for large companies and (ii) underutilisation of a skilled, low cost and flexible student workforce, particularly amongst SME’s.

Bowsy represents an opportunity for employers to replace ineffective resumes and assessment centres which have not changed since the 1950s and to evaluate potential talent based on actual observed performance and cultural fit. Through remote flexible tasks and projects, employers can work with an exponentially higher number of students at lower cost whilst addressing the graduate skills gap through study related work experience

For students, the platform overcomes (i) unequal access to employment opportunities amongst many students due to physical location or background and (ii) the negative impact of working in traditional part time jobs on a student’s academic performance whilst they are studying.

Our vision is to create a meritocracy for all students where everyone has equal access to opportunities, regardless of their background, university or location.
