CareerOS is a next-generation career execution platform focused on early-career outcomes.
One platform for advising, employer relations, alumni, and outcomes reporting, so you do more with the team you have.
About CareerOS
Founded in 2023 by two ESADE graduates who experienced firsthand how broken early-career recruitment can be, CareerOS was built to bring clarity, efficiency, and trust to the hiring process. The platform is designed around transparency and outcomes, helping students, employers, and institutions connect more effectively through a modern, data-driven approach.
Why Highered and CareerOS joined forces

By joining forces, Highered and CareerOS bring together:
- Highered’s global university and employer network
- CareerOS’s student-first career execution technology
