HARDLAUNCH Career Incubator

HARDLAUNCH is not your average career seminar—it’s your professional turning point. Designed for recent grads and early-career professionals, this one-day, high-impact lab gives you an inside look at how real businesses run and what top recruiters are actually looking for. In the morning, we’ll dive into executive thinking, business fluency, and how every function—from marketing to product to operations—ties back to profitability. In the afternoon, we shift gears into soft skills: how to stand out, how to communicate like a leader, and how to win in the workplace. Hear directly from industry executives, take part in live panel discussions, and leave with tools that accelerate your growth. Every participant also receives a post-event 30-minute 1:1 consultation with a recruiter to sharpen your resume, personal brand, and job search strategy.
