What's the problem?

More than 70% of US workers are unhappy costing the US $550B annually. Compounding the problem, workers across all age groups have amassed over $1.2T in student debt and growing.

Due to the inefficient nature of career information, people choose an education path based on very little information about what a career is really like. By the time they find out they chose wrong, they are underwater, unhappy and stressed.

So naturally, workers disengage as they bide their time looking for another opportunity that's a better fit. Stressed workers make up half of all sick days costing the US $30B annually. Happy workers stay at their jobs twice as long as unhappy employees.

With uwannadu, workers are informed, engaged and happy reducing worker turnover and adding productivity.

How do we fix it?

By providing a rich, behind-the-scenes look into thousands of careers that connect to relevant colleges and companies, uwannadu answers "What do I want to do?", "How do I prepare for it?" and "Where will I be happy doing it?".

The fragmented nature of career information, education and opportunities have contributed to the disconnect between an education and the career it prepares you for, leading to employee disengagement. By bringing all of this information under one roof focused on careers, uwannadu creates a more focused way of finding the best career, the right education, and the perfect company all in one place.

Users identify careers by taking our unique interest assessment, then explore extensive Career Profiles. Through these profiles they connect to related colleges and companies. At the same time, these colleges and companies reach a targeted audience in a brand-safe environment with a combination of data, video and social media.
