Problems

Since Modern Guild trains the students who enroll to become job ready, they needed a web application. The platform needs to permit mentors to connect with college students via a video call to train and teach them.
The client wanted the video conferencing and calendar integration in place.

Solution

We analyzed the scope and prepared the base for functional branches of the web app which is responsive and cross-platformed.
We developed a Ruby on Rails-based platform with API integrations with third-party sources.
The project consisted of a main portal and user account part, including integration with a payment system, and login/signup functionality via social networks.

Result

Modern Guild was able to get up and running in record time.
Client now assists students with a minimum of 14 virtual learning opportunities per month.
51% of active Modern Guild members receive an interview opportunity and 79% of alumni credit MG with helping them land their first professional jobs.
