Partly is a platform that lets you find the next great place to work. It's pretty simple - we use a robot to find all the companies in your second degree network that might be a great fit for you, and then make double opt-in intros. No more submitting cold application after cold application and never hearing back. No resumes. No cover letters.
Introductions to the people you probably want to work with. If it works out, we charge a small recruiter fee to the hirer. We want you to see us as pure upside.
Our dream is to build the hiring dial - turn it up to get more opportunities, turn it back down when you're busy or on the beach.
If you've ever tried working as a contractor before, you know that there's one problem above all others - getting clients. No matter how good you are, putting yourself out there is hard. Partly will get you opportunities the same way you would - by revealing you're available to people you've worked with in the past or who can reference your previous work as a full-timer.
If you've ever job hunted successfully before, you probably did the manual version of what we've automated - text or email the people in your professional network, have coffee, and then talk terms.
We have standard CIIAA agreement and IP assignment provisions so you don't need to hire a lawyer every time you start a new project with a client.
In the case of a full time role, the company can easily bring you on. We don't put random provisions or extraneous stuff that doesn't belong - our agreements are good for both sides of the table.
Our target audience is folks who've worked at great tech companies, starting with the places the founders worked at (Benchling, Palantir, Angellist, Meraki, etc).
Look, if you're just starting your career, it's hard to get your foot in the door. But for veterans, it should be as simple as saying "I'm available" and companies should beat a path to your door.
Work is important but what's more important is what it enables: life. Maybe that means making more money in addition to your full time job. Or maybe it means more time with your family.
In the end, we built Partly because making money isn't the goal - the goal is to give you time.
