SEC Extends Podium X Partnership to Third Year

JACKSONVILLE, Fla- For the third year, the Southeastern Conference(SEC) proudly partners with Podium X as an exclusive career readiness solution for participating student-athletes in the 2023 Career Tour starting November 2023.

 

Podium X is the only comprehensive set of tools that supports student-athlete career development throughout the “recruitment process” in the following areas: a shareable digital profile, auto-resume creator, job optimizer, cover letter, elevator pitch, interview prep questions, thank you notes, as well as access to a job board. This simple, unique, personalized, practical, and comprehensive solution is used by nearly ten thousand student-athletes from over 368 different schools.

 

“I believe that Podium X is a game-changer for student-athletes. The way it personalizes your story and highlights your athletic experience helps you stand out and get noticed. I’m also impressed with how they use advanced features very easily and practically to increase your marketability and career opportunities”, says Misty Brown, SEC Assistant Commissioner.

 

SEC Student-athletes have the option to attend one of the two available launch meetings with Podium X’s CEO, Rich Thompson, and Program Coordinator Audrey McCabe, for additional information on how to create an account, build a Podium, and use the special features to assist in their career search. Once an athlete achieves a Gold Medal Podium, which should be done in this help session, Podium X will print and ship a useful and unique Podium Career Card that can be used throughout company meetings. This business card for student-athlete job seekers contains custom contact information, including a unique QR Code that links to the athlete’s digital story.
