Nancy Soni is the CEO at Pathmatch, a talent marketplace that helps students explore and identify potential career paths and then matches them with employers for internships and full-time job opportunities. Her inspiration for building Pathmatch comes from her own experience navigating career choices when she was in college, as well as after working for almost 2 decades in the corporate recruiting and hiring space.


During this interview we covered:

  • What is Pathmatch, and how it’s providing a new approach to helping early career talent explore careers and internships
  • How the current way of hiring college students is outdated, and how Pathmatch is better serving students and employers
  • How Pathmatch is bypassing traditional routes to students, and using technology to meet them where they are
  • What’s next for Pathmatch and their plan for creating career mobility and opportunities for more students
