3,500 students signed up with $0 marketing. We’ve placed 1,000+ interns in 5 months. Now, we’re looking for more Kenyan Founders to join the movement.
Hey r/KenyaStartups ,
I’m Melgibson, and I’m tired of seeing the "Who-You-Know" culture keep talented people out of the workforce.
In Kenya, we’ve reached a point where students are actually paying loads of money just to get an attachment because it’s a graduation requirement. It’s exploitation, plain and simple. Businesses are stuck with family-pass-downs, leaving no room for the next generation of builders.
With over a year of structure, planning and outreach, 5 months ago, I started Tayari Careers as a "Student-First" bridge. We wanted to connect serious students with SMEs and Startups that actually value growth over corruption.
The result? With zero ads, zero campaigns and zero marketing, we’ve hit:
- 3,500+ early access sign-ups.
- 1,200 students onboarded.(Of the 3,500 we only onboarded)
- 1,000+ successful placements in Tech, Finance, Creatives, and Health.
We’ve seen startups build their entire operations from the ground up by giving students a chance, many of them remotely and now those same startups are generating revenue and offering paid roles and are our partners in recruiting more students in both fields (Attachments & Internships)
We go public to the whole nation before end of May.
Before we do, We are looking for more Founders, SMEs, and Startups to join the platform. We aren't just a job board; we handle the HR heavy lifting for you:
- Personality Tests: We find the person behind the CV.
- Skill Assessments: We verify they actually add value to your business before you meet them.
- Curated Matching: You tell us what you need, and we give you a shortlist of the most serious, vetted candidates. No corruption, no exploitation.
If you’re a Founder/Recruiters looking for hands-on help (On-site or Remote) and want to help us change the way hiring works in Kenya, I’d love to hear from you.
