CAREERS
Inspire your students with real-world role models
SocialArchive helps you capture and share community and alumni career journeys that show what’s possible after school or university. Whether it’s a recent graduate or a parent entrepreneur, these stories help students make more informed, confident choices about their future.
-
Capture authentic career journeys
Invite alumni and other members of your community to share their stories in their own words, or in response to guided prompts, using built-in video and audio tools. From choosing university courses to landing first jobs, starting businesses or switching paths, students gain real insight into the decisions, challenges and opportunities, that shape every career.
-
Build an on-demand careers library
Collect stories over time and make them accessible through a searchable, ever-growing archive. Each story is automatically transcribed and catalogued for easy retrieval. Curate content by industry, graduation year, subject or location, to support career guidance and curriculum planning.
-
Show relatable role models and diverse career paths
Help students connect with alumni who share their backgrounds, interests or study routes, while also showcasing the full spectrum of post-education journeys. From local entrepreneurs to global professionals, SocialArchive reveals the real, varied possibilities that lie ahead.
-
Demonstrate your impact
Showcase the long-term value of your education by highlighting student outcomes and success stories. Use real alumni journeys to demonstrate the impact your school, college or university, has on careers, confidence and future opportunities.
-
Safe, scalable and fully under your control
Unlike mentorship platforms, SocialArchive facilitates no direct contact between students and contributors, ensuring a safe environment for all. You choose what gets published, who sees it and when. Whether that’s staff-only, student access or full community sharing.
-
Support your careers programme and meet key benchmarks
SocialArchive helps schools deliver elements of the UK’s Gatsby Benchmarks by providing student access to real-world stories, employer insight and alumni experiences, that strengthen the link between learning and the world of work.
Jen is a successful finance executive on the US East Coast.
She’s a proud alumna of her UK school and wants to give back. But with her schedule, geography and the time difference, attending a careers event isn’t realistic.
That’s where SocialArchive Careers comes in.
Her school sends her a simple link to record short video or audio answers to career-focused questions. She responds when and where it suits her. The recordings are instantly saved to the school’s archive, tagged, transcribed, and ready to share with students.
Now, Jen’s career journey is available to inspire not just one class, but multiple cohorts for years to come.
