About Alumni Insights
Connecting students with experienced alumni to help shape their educational and career paths
Our Mission
Alumni Insights was founded with a simple yet powerful mission: to bridge the gap between academic education and real-world careers through meaningful alumni-student connections.
We believe that experienced alumni are an invaluable resource for students navigating their educational and career paths. By facilitating these connections, we help students make more informed decisions and alumni give back to their communities.
Our platform enables personalized guidance that goes beyond generic career advice, creating lasting mentor relationships that benefit both parties.
Our Story
Alumni Insights began in 2022 when our founder, Emily Johnson, recognized a critical gap in higher education: while universities had robust alumni networks, there was no efficient way for current students to connect with graduates for personalized guidance.
As a career counselor, Emily saw firsthand how students struggled to make informed decisions about their majors, internships, and career paths. She also knew how many alumni wished they had received better guidance during their own studies.
The platform started as a small pilot program at three universities, connecting 50 students with alumni mentors. The results were transformative – students reported greater clarity about their career paths, while alumni found deep satisfaction in sharing their expertise.
Today, Alumni Insights connects thousands of students with alumni across hundreds of educational institutions, creating valuable relationships that help shape the next generation of professionals.
