Avenica

Your entry-level career matchmaker. Everyone has a superpower, ours is finding yours. Simply put, we work with you to get you hired.

At Avenica we are not recruiters, we are advocates for high-caliber talent whose story is yet to be written. Most employers (or their agencies) scan resumes for keywords and care little about who you are. At Avenica, we see your resume as merely one data point in the larger picture of your true potential. Through a combination of data science, psychology, and just the right amount of empathy, we are changing the way the world works.
