Forage revolutionized career exploration and skill development by connecting students with leading companies through online job simulations. These simulations offer college students a unique opportunity to cultivate practical skills, acquire valuable experience, and gain insights into diverse career paths. By simulating a typical day for a junior employee, students can engage in hypothetical tasks, learn from industry professionals, and identify roles that align with their aptitudes and interests.
Forage's core belief is that talent is universally distributed, but opportunity is not. Their programs enable prominent employers to extend opportunities to students from all backgrounds, irrespective of their location, field of study, or university affiliation. Employers leverage these simulations to attract and recruit exceptional, highly motivated candidates from a wide range of diverse backgrounds.
With a thriving community of over 4 million students, Forage collaborates with renowned organizations such as GE, BCG, HSBC, Goldman Sachs, Lululemon, EY, Accenture, Latham & Watkins, JPMorgan Chase & Co, Citi, BNY Mellon, Prudential, Verizon, Bloomberg, Oliver Wyman, HPE, KPMG, and Deloitte, among others, to deliver impactful job simulations.
