The Most Innovative College-to-Career App is Here! | Symplicity

For over 20 years Symplicity has strived to create the most ground-breaking student employment solutions in the market. As part of our ongoing efforts to enable students with the tools to build meaningful careers, we’ve updated our mobile application – Symplicity Jobs and Careers - with new functionality to empower students to go from college to career right in the palm of their hand.

With Symplicity Jobs and Careers, students can easily find relevant jobs, connect with employers, access their career center resources, register for events and more. To simplify the job search experience, we’re using machine learning and personalization tools to recommend opportunities to students based on their interests, skills, location, and search preferences. We’ve remodeled the Symplicity app after other popular apps in which users can “swipe” right if they’re interested and swipe left if they’re not. This quick action can help students identify valuable job opportunities, which they can “favorite” and apply on their own time, and refine their curated job recommendations.

The new Symplicity app has the most sophisticated, user-friendly career fair functionality in the market. Students can view and register for upcoming employer events, learn about recruiters in town, and see where their booths are located during the event. Alternatively, career centers can leverage the feature to organize employer events and include everything from custom branding, dates, location, and even parking information. Our app is also the only student employment application that allows clients to replace the default app icon and add a custom icon to match the branding of their career center or institution.

Our main goal with the new Symplicity Jobs and Careers app is to help our clients engage more students and increase post-graduation outcomes. Our research has shown that the rate of student users returning to the new mobile app is more than double compared to web users. Caylie Martucci, a senior from the University of Maryland, shares our sentiment. “The app very helpful for a college student who is busy running from class to class. It’s really simple to use and you can easily access it from your phone anywhere you are,” she said. By meeting students where they are and providing them with a fun, personalized career journey, institutions can guarantee student success and become the premier job board destination for their students.

Symplicity Jobs and Careers is available for all our North America and CSM enterprise clients. Download the app on your iOS or Android device.
