much to convey skills, but Seelio allows
employers to see real examples of
my skill level & what I can bring to
their open position. Of all the sites I’ve
used, this is by far the easiest.”

Calumet Student
“I really like the Seelio platform. Not only
does it provide access to potential
employees, but it includes pertinent
information like resumes and key project
materials. A quick way to review
candidates.”
- Purdue Calumet Industry Partner
“Seelio has quickly become an integral part of our
media program and the Moody Media Lab.Vital in
connecting us to students, students to one
another, and future employers to our students.
Every part of our program from the quality
of student work, to our collaborative
culture, to career placement has been
improved with Seelio in the mix. What's
more, I'm thrilled that we are finally able to fully
showcase our one-of-a-kind creative community
to partners, donors, and potential future students.”
