SuitUp x Snap Inc.
Partner Objective
Snap Inc. asked SuitUp to create a custom experience other than a business competition that would support students in getting career ready.
Program Summary
Students from LEAP, a non-profit located in South Bronx, and Snap Inc. volunteers participated in a simulated networking event called “Networking in a Snap.” Over the course of the 90-minute event, volunteers and students got to know each other through a networking mixer and a guided roundtable discussion. The activity was gamified, to keep both students and volunteers engaged.
At the end of the event, participants shared their reflections, learnings, and how this experience impacted them.
Success Metrics
Achieved Objective
SuitUp facilitated a new and custom Snap Inc. experience for its volunteers. “Networking in a Snap” allowed Snap Inc. to increase student career readiness and improve students’ soft skills in a non-business competition environment. Students were able to work on their public speaking, interpersonal skills and active listening during this event.
