Our Mission
Why are we doing this?
Picture this: four determined McGill MBAs, armed with caffeine ☕️ and dedication 💪, navigating the challenges of Canadian academia and the job market. From international students to seasoned professionals, we've experienced it all – the late-night study sessions 📚, nerve-wracking interviews 💼, and even those daunting LinkedIn cold messages.
LinkedIn is the go-to place for professional connections, but let's be honest, crafting cold messages feels like cracking a secret code while juggling flaming torches🔥 . It's time-consuming and often not very effective.
One fall evening, we gathered over coffee ☕️ and discussed the frustrations of networking. Suddenly, it hit us: why should reaching out to people be so difficult?
Thus, WiseCup was born – a solution to the endless LinkedIn requests and missed connections. Networking shouldn't require a degree in deciphering cryptic messages. With WiseCup, we're on a mission to make networking as simple as ordering your morning coffee ☕️.
Join us in redefining the art of networking, one cup at a time. Because who says business can't be enjoyable? 😉
