Inspiration

My name is Nousha Afshar and like many of you, I worry about finding an internship in college. The job market is the most competitive its ever been. In order to find things to add to my resume, I end up exploring the internet for hours to find solid advice and opportunities. There needs to be an easier way, that's why my team and I created Thrive.

What it does

Thrive is an app that takes the hassle out of trying to make yourself a competitive candidate for the job market. The app lists volunteer and research opportunities and competitions local or online related to the user's field/major. Users can also discuss with one another on a chat forum for their field to ask questions or give advice with the same people they will be working with one day.

How we built it

We used Glide apps.

Challenges we ran into

None of us knew how to use Glide and some of us have never created anything like this before. The lack of experience was the largest hurdle.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The app itself and how useful it is to students around the country is a great accomplishment. We are proud of the tool we created.

What we learned

How to work together to build a product in only a day and how to sort through problems smoothly.

What's next for Thrive

We hope we can deliver this to the app store and continue to build this product. We want everyone to have access to something that can really improve their future.
