Mareza is the man! He was my last interview of the day, after a crazy and intense interview schedule. I was expecting to conduct a quick interview with him, but as soon as we got to talking, I knew this interview would go over! First of all, Mareza is one of the most fascinating people to speak with. He is engaging, dynamic, and insightful. For those of you who don’t recognize the name, you will absolutely recognize his website: www.Doostang.com. Mareza is co-founder of Doostang, an online career community that connects people through personal relationships and affiliations. A former venture capitalist and proprietary trader with Draper Fisher Jurvetson ePlanet and Merrill Lynch, Mareza earned his MBA from Stanford Graduate School of Business. He launched Doostang during the summer of 2005. Since then, the site has grown to over 290,000 users and is considered the pre-eminent site among the educated and talented group of 21-34 year olds. javascript:void(0)
I first learned of Doostang when I was an undergrad at MIT. It hit MIT’s campuses first since the other co-founder is an MIT alum. With the job market becoming even more difficult to navigate, sites like Doostang can simplify the process and facilitate networked connections. I spoke to Mareza about how his website can help students network and find jobs in a targeted fashion. I also spoke to him about the ideal candidate Stanford Graduate School of Business looks for. I highly encourage all of you to check out Doostang. Stay tuned for my interview with Mareza…only on MBA PodTV!
Take care,
