    Big Win for WorkUp! Huge shoutout to Tony Martinez at negozee🚀 Ventures for officially adding us to their portfolio and to Will DeJesus CPA, CIA for his angel investment! 🙌 Your belief in our mission to revolutionize job hunting with AI and video means the world. Startups are a wild ride – from 2 AM brainstorms to surviving on ramen and coffee. UCLA prepped me for a lot, but this journey is next-level. This investment isn’t just capital; it’s the lifeline we needed to keep our vision alive. Here’s to breaking barriers and setting new standards in career tech. Our journey is just getting started. 🌟 #StartupLife #AngelInvestment #AI #TechInnovation #CareerTech #Gratitude #EntrepreneurLife #UCLA

    Excited to share that WorkUp has been selected for LBAN’s Tech Accelerator at Stanford, supported by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Thanks to this world-class program, our company will receive unparalleled access to mentorship, capital, industry expertise, and a vibrant community of fellow entrepreneurs. Our team is extremely grateful to the LBAN/Latino Business Action Network for making this possible along with the Executive Education Certification offered by the Stanford University Graduate School of Business Last and most importantly, I’d like to thank our team for getting us here because this win is as much yours as it is mine. You work day in and day out, take calls and stay up helping each other through the late evenings, and you each inspire me as much as you motivate me to keep pushing forward Hemanth Sammatur Kyle Humphrey Calvin Kwon For those that are interested in this program, click on the link below for more information: https://lnkd.in/dsQ3U3D5 #startup #stanford #tech #jpmorganchase #lban #accelerator #entrepreneur #ai

    HIRE MORE UNDERDOGS. They make up for what they lack in experience through a burning desire to learn and a hunger to succeed. If only given the opportunity, you’ll be surprised to see that they will soon be running laps around experienced hires. That isn’t to say it isn’t important to hire pre-qualified candidates, but a healthy balance of the two makes for a powerhouse of a team. At WorkUp, we have a small yet world-class crew of former and incoming talent, and I’d like to take a moment to recognize our growing team: Hemanth Sammatur, Software Engineer, BS Computer Science at UCLA Maharshi Patel, Software Engineer, Masters in Computer Science at Arizona State University Calvin Kwon, Software Engineer, BA Computer Science at University of California, Berkeley Kyle Humphrey, Software Engineer, BS Computer Science at San Francisco State University Interested in joining our growing company? Don’t hesitate to send me a DM. In fact, one of our most recent hires got the job because he took the time to network with me and even sent me a proposal of how he intended to contribute meaningfully despite his lack of professional experience; and now, I couldn’t be happier to have him be a part of our team.
