M@dison Building’s hiredMYway launches CollegeTopTalent.com

Downtown Detroit-based hiredMYway recently launched CollegeTopTalent.com, a new online portal the staffing startup hopes will connect more mature companies with young workers.

The online platform works to fill internship and entry-level positions. New workers can create an online profile complete with a resume, personal pitch and a 60-minute video. The idea is to create a clear path for big companies to find the best candidates to fill entry-level positions.

“This is a market we saw a big need on both sides for both big companies and college students,” says Matt Mosher, founder & CEO of hiredMYway.

The 2-year-old start-up connects employers with potential hires through a dating-service-style model to help match people with jobs on the Internet by matching needs of employers with the appropriate skills of job seekers. Mosher says 4,000-plus employers use hiredMYway.

“We have 50,000 job seekers coming through on an annual basis,” Mosher says.

The Detroit Venture Partners-backed firm currently calls the M@dison Building home and has offices for its 18-employee-and-five-intern staff in Royal Oak and Chicago. It has hired four people for sales and marketing positions over the last year.
