My name is Callum and I am the co-founder and CEO of WHYNESS, an AI-driven startup that helps jobseekers find fulfilling work.
I am excited to join this community and share my story about WHYNESS and how it can help jobseekers find their path…

This is absolutely fantastic Callum! I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks I made some mistakes early in my career that I would do differently if I went back! Can only imagine how powerful this is going to be for young people in the future of work, really support you!

An initial observation Callum is that pulling together topical business themes under an umbrella does not of itself a business made.

That’s such a great idea. I started on a big corporate graduate training programme but I’d be lost today as a graduate.

Thank you Pete! There’s certainly a lot of challenges for today’s graduates. I really appreciate your encouragement and support :). If you or any employers / investors in your network are interested to learn more, I am of course very happy to connect to discuss further

This looks great Callum Denyer, are you partnering with any schools or business schools who want to help their graduates find work? Or how do you find cadidates, who’s in your sweetspot?

Hi Lara, yes we are currently partnering with a few university careers departments. But always on the look out for more ! We find our candidates through a combination of partnerships, ”guest lectures”, and direct targeted outreach. We’re also hoping to start doing more organic content creation on social media. We’re continuously exploring and testing different engagement channels – any advice / intro’s / support welcome 🙂
