Overview

Home From College operates a marketplace called "Gig" where companies list paid opportunities ranging from one-time content-creation gigs and product tests to part-time, internship, and longer-term roles. The platform includes profile features like interview-question responses, colorful about pages, and a beta résumé builder called Resume Studio to help students showcase personality and skills. Listings are reviewed before going live and all gigs on the platform are paid; compensation varies widely by listing. The company is free for students and charges companies subscription tiers (Starter $99/month, Growth Mode $199/month, Enterprise priced variably) plus a 20% service fee on invoices. The site reports over 100,000 users and has facilitated "thousands and thousands" of hires. The team plans to expand product offerings to people who have been in the workforce for ten years or less.
