For employer partners

Meet early-career talent that's already shipped real work.

Best Seeds is a diverse pipeline of students, trade school, and young-adult talent for internships, apprenticeships, and early-career roles — with portfolios you can review before the first call.

Why partner

Signal, not filler.

See the work, not the résumé

Every graduate leaves with a case study, a portfolio, and a two-minute video intro. You meet the work first.

A pipeline you'd never source alone

High school, trade school, and young-adult talent from communities most early-career pipelines miss entirely.

Ready for structured teams

Students train on real product with real feedback loops. They arrive knowing what a standup is.

Ways to work with us

Every partnership is scoped to what your team actually needs. Some common shapes:

  • Sponsor a cohort challenge

    We build a project brief around a real problem your team owns. You get shipped work and a shortlist of talent.

  • Hire from the portfolio

    Preview portfolios, video intros, and case studies before ever running an interview loop.

  • Mentor a student

    One hour a month. Structured. Async where possible. High signal for both sides.

What partnering looks like

Three steps from intro to shipped work.

Low commitment to start. High signal both ways before anyone signs anything.
