Get your foot in the door!
You can find the theory for almost anything online, but you only know if a career is right for you by actually trying it. We provide bite-sized micro-internships that fit around your student life. They are designed to be manageable so you can test your interests without falling behind in class.
Our goal is to help you discover what you love and what you hate. We are now growing beyond startups to work with larger companies too. This creates a clear path from your first discovery to your first big role, whether that is an internship or a full-time job.

Stop guessing and start doing.
Real people, real impact, real results.
You are in good company.

They realized that whether you find a job by chance or by applying to hundreds of places, the result is the same. You finally get to see what a career actually looks like. They started Headstart to make that first "yes" easier for everyone.
Evelyn began in freelance photography. She met people from startups, banks, and film sets before working at an aerospace startup. Even though she wasn't an engineer, she was suddenly sitting in meeting rooms and building investor decks. She realized that the mystery of a "big career" disappears the moment you start doing the work.
Evelyn's Story
Kyle took a different path. He spent his first year of university applying to hundreds of startup listings. After a long six-round interview process, he landed a role at a health tech startup. He learned how to sell, how to pitch, and how to actually put a product out into the world.
Evelyn's Story
Most career advice is just theory. We help you move past the classroom and into the rooms where things actually happen. With a community of 3,000 students and 200 startup partners, we are here to help you get your foot in the door.
Real experience for the real world.
