EdTechReview.in is excited to announce that Teal, an innovative career growth platform, has recently acquired Seattle-based social platform OwnTrail. This acquisition is a major milestone for both companies and their respective communities.
Teal is a platform that provides individuals with the tools, skills, and guidance they need to empower their professional life. It offers free web-based career tools, such as a Job Tracker, Resume Builder, and Chrome extension, that help people accelerate their job search. In just over a year, the company has become the go-to choice for over 65,000 users and helped them land their dream jobs at companies like Google, Apple, TikTok, Spotify, and Bumble. It has raised over $11 million, including a $5 million round in 2020 led by Flybridge Capital.
OwnTrail, founded by Rebekah Bastian, is a social platform that allows users to map their career trajectory. On the platform, they can highlight important milestones in their professional growth, personal relationships, and well-being. They can also share their paths with other users, giving them insights and lessons from their own experiences. OwnTrail has 6,600 users and more than 35,000 life milestones. As part of the deal, Rebekah Bastian will join Teal as an advisor.
This acquisition is a great opportunity for teachers to access more resources and guidance on their professional development. With Teal’s web-based career tools, teachers will have access to a Job Tracker, Resume Builder, and Chrome extension to help them accelerate their job search. They can also use OwnTrail to map their career trajectory, highlighting important milestones in their professional growth, personal relationships, and well-being.
We at EdTechReview.in are excited to see how this acquisition will help teachers in their professional development. We are looking forward to the growth and success of both Teal and OwnTrail.
