About us
Northbridge is building its platform from the ground up to facilitate and improve job opportunities for international students, making it easier for them to connect with employers and secure meaningful careers after graduation.
Our Mission
Northbridge started with a question: How could we improve the job searching process for international students who graduate in the United States if we could rebuild and reshape it from the ground up?
At Northbridge, we don't just understand the challenges international students face, we've lived them. Our founder experienced firsthand the uncertainties of navigating the post-graduation job market as an international student. This personal journey drives our enthusiasm and guides every aspect of our approach.
Our mission is simple: bridge the gap between international talent and opportunity.
