Our Story
The Muse’s co-founders, Kathryn Minshew and Alex Cavoulacos, launched The Muse to help people navigate their career journey and find the right career path for them. The idea for The Muse came out of a simple question: How do you know whether a role, company or career will be the right fit?
In 2010, they created a small blog that helped women connect with each other and provided actionable advice and insights about how to craft a successful and fulfilling career. The project quickly took off, leading to the observation that millions of other people were also frustrated with existing career tools.
In 2011, Kathryn and Alex started The Muse, a career platform that is now used by more than 70 million people annually to research companies and careers. The Muse has been named one of Fast Company’s 50 Most Innovative Companies in the World and #3 Most Innovative Company for Enterprise.
Our Promise
We've never had more career possibilities—so why is it still so hard to find a job that's right for you? Because even the best tech can't answer the real question driving our career decisions: What do you really want out of work?
That's why we started The Muse. To help you discover where you want to go and get you there, in a world without a roadmap. Our expert-backed advice and guided career hunt process is built differently than old-school legacy job boards. With us, you’ll avoid the frustration of typical job searches and connect with companies that share your vision of work.
We've gathered all the relevant information you need to decide if a job is right for you: professional advice that helps you explore your possibilities and make them your reality, an advanced job search targeted to your particular priorities, employee-validated insights into what life is really like inside a company, and hands-on coaching to put your best foot forward and actually land the position.
Our Brand Pillars
CLARITY
Whether you're looking for a job or recruiting for one, the talent process is opaque and overwhelming. By sharing our insider knowledge and asking meaningful questions, we help people identify their needs, priorities, and values and arrive at career and talent decisions that work best for their unique skills and situations.
QUALITY
In an industry that runs on quantity, we focus on what really matters to job seekers and companies: providing the trustworthy, actionable knowledge, connections, and support they need to build their desired career or workforce. Without sacrificing speed, our process makes career matches that last.
POSSIBILTY
We expand the sense of possibility for everyone in our ecosystem—to make navigating your career feel promising. By exposing job seekers to new companies, fields, and opportunities, and highlighting employer strengths, benefits, and culture to talented professionals, we restore a sense of optimism and agency to an experience that is typically frustrating and confusing.
