Ahlia Kitwana
Founder - Careal Bayo
unaware of their strengths
The platform was inspired when Founder, Ahlia Kitwana was teaching at a community college at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. While a lot of white-collar jobs shifted online easily, the essential workers still had to go out into unknown peril (at the time) in order to make ends meet. What Ahlia realized was:
-
Her students were unaware that they were already QUALIFIED for a slew of jobs that paid well and better than what they were earning at the time.
-
They were unaware of all the strengths, superpowers and transferable skills they already possessed and how to convey that to potential employers.
