Hi, my name is Malika. I'm a rising junior at Smith College. I'm double majoring in quantitative economics and statistics and data sciences. I have experience with interning at a commercial bank in Kazakhstan, at a data engineering intern and data science intern. And in my free time, I have been coding a lot with Cloud to fulfill my projects in quantitative finance, so using different models and figuring out things. Yeah, so I'm looking for roles at the intersection of finance, data science, and product management. And yeah, in my free time, I do fencing. I run professionally also. I went to TypeBridge Business Program. It's an MBA-style program held in the Type Business School at Dartmouth. And I've done quite a lot of Wall Street prep certificates. Since Smith College is a liberal arts college, so I'll just try to supplement with financial certifications. Yeah, so, like, yeah, that's me. Yeah, I would say I'm open for data science, some financial roles, or product management, so those three.

Transcript

Okay, I think, do you have like any feedbacks for using the platform or from the project managing perspective that you were expecting to see? Yeah, I was wondering, what initially motivated you to make this platform? Like, yeah, I really love the interface, but second of all, some of the hiring, like hiring slash job, I feel like doesn't reflect that. And I'm just wondering how the like AI basically decides what's a hiring slash job or what's not. Yeah. So AI don't design or decide anything. We're uh we're not working based on true needs and true requests. So there are people there, they're posting their needs, um for example, hiring, recruiting, and uh clients and reach out or like even founding projects, and there are even investors looking for projects there. So um there is no AI involved in any decision-making process. AI is just the agents networking that help you as a real person to connect with the other person. And you can schedule a meeting directly with them through our agent, and that's what um AI involved in this process, but all the networking are based on like true relationship and real people. Yeah. Makes sense. Okay. Yeah. Um, yeah, I don't think I have more questions about it. Okay, yeah, that would be great if you um I highly recommend you to check frequently or like connect it with your email or your phone number so that you will get updates like as soon as possible, just like today how I schedule or reschedule a meeting with you. I believe you replied my message, right? Yes, yes, that was amazing. Yeah, that's very efficient. I don't even need to open my computer and reply your message or like communicate through email. Yeah, that's kind of like the efficient process. We have candidates who was in talk with our CEO Walter. You can also schedule a meeting with him. Um, it was just fast, like 10 minutes after he registered, he want to talk to CEO and he got a meeting after 10 minutes. So that's what we're kind of doing, like, we don't want to waste time in um connecting people through, you know, HR in the first step, second step. So in this way, you can talk to the decision makers directly by just requesting a meeting. And also being part of our networking, um, we have very crucial um roles to help you get connected if you have any needs or like questions, you can just reach out directly to me to see if I can, like, you know, help you connect it or do an introduction or something like that. But for the basic role needs, um just frequently check the companies they will post the active hiring there. I had a question about that, actually. I remember. I remember when I go to the main page of the hiring, there's like a map of San Francisco, right? Yes. And um, are those companies that like that are dots on this com on this map and the list of the companies that are hiring in the Explore page? Not all of them, but we're connecting more and more. And there are some companies they have potentially hiring needs, but not right now, so that's why they're not active on the list if you just ask your agent directly. But yeah, I see. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah. Well, thank you so much for your time then. Yeah. Thank you. Thanks for coming here. Thank you.
