Students that develop a solid network while in high school, college and grad school have an advantage. Connecting with like-minded peers and student mentors creates a support system that can help you reach your fullest potential.
Many students find themselves wondering how to network as a student. Goodwall is an app that makes it easy to connect with like-minded peers.
What is Goodwall?
The
Goodwall app is a social platform designed to help students grow personally and professionally. The virtual community connects two million app users to global networks and professional opportunities. Students use Goodwall to build relationships and to create a personal brand that leads to future success.
How Students Can Use the App
The Goodwall app has many functions you can use to get ahead.
Users create a profile linking them to others with similar interests, values, and goals. Using their profile, an algorithm adjusts a student's feed to feature content that is relevant to them.
Gen Z students can exchange information, pitch ideas, and join groups. To share information with fellow users, students use the chat feature to find causes, volunteer programs, and discuss opportunities.
A Goodwall profile serves as the new digital portfolio or a personal website for young professionals. Not only can students use the tool for business networking, but they can also use it to highlight achievements. Goodwall is connected to employers looking for entry-level talent, giving users access to internship programs and job opportunities.
Students can use these tools to grow professionally. The platform also offers programs and learning courses focused on skill development.
