About the Author
Roberto Angulo is co-founder and CEO of AfterCollege, the largest career network for college students and recent graduates. He came up with the idea for AfterCollege while studying economics at Stanford University. Not knowing what to do with his degree, he set out to start a service that helped students figure out what to do based on their field of study. Today, AfterCollege is used by millions of students and grads annually and counts more than 18,000 professors and academic contacts as subscribers who receive targeted job content for their students.
Roberto is also the CEO of Recruitology, a leading recruitment platform that helps small and medium employers hire the right candidates at the right time. The platform gives employers access to best-of-breed job sites and includes intelligent job distribution, an applicant tracking system, and analytics.
He collaborated with President Obama’s administration on various initiatives, including the launch of Summer Jobs+, which created summer opportunities for youth ages 16 to 24. He also co-founded US2020.org, an initiative to engage STEM professionals as mentors to students from kindergarten through graduate school.
Roberto enjoys traveling, running, and developing new product and partnership ideas for AfterCollege and Recruitology.
