It is my pleasure to meet you all ! My name is Brendan and I am a grittycollege entrepreneur from New England . I come from a pretty untraditional background No biological father in my life , unemployment of both my stepfather and mother for most of my life , living in 8 different states in 20 homes over 19 years . yes you can say I ' ve been some places and seen some things in my youth . So , about 4 months ago , I was involved in a serious car accident and left unemployed and assetless . It was a pretty scary place to be in when you are forced to move back in with your struggling family , but I had no other option . So during my recovery I began talking to my freinds about their summers . What I learned was most of the people my age worked for a Grocery Stores b Restaurants c ConstructionLabor companies . I had spoken with close friends , acquaintances , and even some peers I had met once or twice that were mainly strongacademic and involved students over their college careers , yet they struggled to get hired for an entrylevel position in a midlevel company . I was absolutely appalled and I began to contact HR managers I knew from staffing firms and doing research on youngprofessional employment . I quickly caught attention to the usage of search engines to research prospective candidates and the preference of nonsocial platforms for showcasing achievements Resume , CV , Website , Etc . . So , over the course of my research and feedback from a little over 1 , 000 kids on my campus I cofounded a startup company called Resumysite based on these principles . My cofounder and I , are currently in the process of developing a web and mobile platform that allows users to improve their hireability and reputation through a variety of professional services Website creation and resume writing with a large variety of support services to optimize the user experience . So currently my partner and I are looking at a multitude of options for developing this platform while forming a speakerseries titled What does Google say about you ? . I would greatly appreciate any feedback on the usefulness of this presentation and any suggestions for addedvalue or topicsexamples that a younger success oriented audience would be interested in . Our event webpage is googleyourself . guru . We are actively building a schedule for a speakerseries that would run 1520 collegesuniversities . In terms of my experience in organizing this type of event I am kind of new and I have been working on developing a mock presentation and gaining references to work my way into booking opportunities . Additionally , my team is currently deciding between an able loan paying back close friends and family , seeking investment , or finding a motivated developer to build a MVP . Our prelaunch signup page is www . resumysite . com . Like I said with our speakerseries any advice , stories about your experiences , or any comments are greatly appreciated towards accomplishing my dream of helping a lot of people gain the employment opportunities they deserve . Thank you for giving me a chance to introduce myself , tell you about my startup , and allowing me the opportunity to learn and grow from a great community . Collaboration is an extremely powerful force to drive innovation and I look forward to hearing all your comments , stories , or relations to what we are doing here at Resumysite ! Love and respect , Brendan
