Problem
Architecture and design students often struggle to secure internships, full‑time positions, or visa‑friendly opportunities because they lack targeted career guidance, portfolio feedback, and access to a curated job market. International graduates face additional barriers due to opaque sponsorship policies and limited information about firms that hire foreign talent.
Solution
ArchK offers an end‑to‑end career support platform built exclusively for architecture, urban design, interior design, landscape, and related disciplines. The service pairs students and recent graduates with experienced mentors who provide portfolio reviews, interview coaching, and personalized job‑search strategies. ArchK maintains a real‑time, curated database of over 1,000 architecture and design openings, including a list of firms that regularly sponsor international candidates. Its proprietary frameworks (ABCD® and CTRLC®) translate recruiter feedback into actionable skill‑development plans covering both technical and soft‑skill competencies. The platform guides users from career planning through application, interview, offer negotiation, and onboarding, ensuring continuous support until a placement is secured.
