Bossjob Partners with Top Universities to Help Graduates Kickstart Their Careers

Published

on

MANILA, Philippines, March 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The number of college graduates in the Philippines is projected to reach 600,000 to 700,000 by 2025, intensifying competition in an already challenging job market. Recognizing the urgent need to bridge the gap between education and employment, Bossjob is taking proactive steps to empower fresh graduates. Through strategic partnerships with top universities across the country, Bossjob hosts career talks, job fairs, and other initiatives designed to connect graduates with the right opportunities. By providing a precise and accessible job search platform, Bossjob is committed to equipping young professionals with the tools they need to launch successful careers.

Build a bridge between universities and enterprises to help talents and enterprises accurately connect

As one of the leading platforms that actively focus on the Philippines’ career development, Bossjob has been actively collaborating with top universities and government agencies to bridge the gap between education and employment. Since the beginning of the year, Bossjob has successfully organized over ten career development events, including career dialogues, job fairs, and career lectures, offering graduates comprehensive career support. By leveraging university resources, these initiatives not only provide a precise job-matching platform but also equip students with essential coaching in job search strategies, career planning, and interview skills, ensuring a seamless transition into the workforce.

At career fairs hosted by institutions like Mapúa University and the University of the Philippines, Bossjob established dedicated booths that attracted a significant number of graduates and alumni seeking career guidance. Through the platform, students and young professionals can create personalized career profiles and receive tailored job recommendations based on their skills, interests, and career aspirations—helping them take confident steps toward their professional goals.

Bossjob continues to expand its impact by actively participating in job fairs organized by the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) across various municipalities, including Muntinlupa, Parañaque, Antipolo, and Pasay. These events have created valuable employment opportunities for local job seekers. As an exhibitor, Bossjob not only assists candidates in building personalized career profiles but also connects them with job opportunities that align with their skills and aspirations.

Further strengthening its commitment to career empowerment, Bossjob has launched the “Like a Boss” webinar series, featuring industry experts who provide practical job search strategies and career development insights. These free sessions equip college graduates and young professionals with essential skills, helping them stand out in a competitive job market and advance their professional journeys with confidence.

Focusing on women’s employment and promoting workplace equality and diversity

Bossjob’s initiatives go beyond providing career resources for graduates—they also champion workplace diversity and gender equality. Recognizing the challenges women face in employment, Bossjob is committed to fostering an inclusive job market that drives sustainable development in the Philippines.

According to Labor Force Statistical Data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), while more Filipino women are earning university degrees, their employment rates remain lower than those of men, who continue to dominate the workforce.

In response, Bossjob marked Women’s Month in March by partnering with PESO in Pasay and Malabon to host job fairs focused on female employment. The Pasay event alone attracted over 600 job seekers, with women making up more than 60% of the attendees. Beyond offering diverse job opportunities, these events provided one-on-one career guidance, empowering women to break into traditionally male-dominated industries and advance workplace gender equality.

Bossjob CEO Anthony said, “Career development is not just about finding a job, but also an important way to achieve personal value and social progress. In the future, Bossjob will continue to provide comprehensive career support for job seekers, not only deepening cooperation with universities to provide career development support for more graduates, but also creating more equal opportunities for female job seekers and promoting sustainable development of Philippine society.”

Chelsea FC name fast-growing fintech platform as Principal Partner

LONDON, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chelsea Football Club has today announced a multi-year partnership with Sokin, the embedded finance and payments company used by businesses worldwide. Sokin will be named a Principal Partner and Official Business Payments and FX Partner of Chelsea FC and Chelsea FC Women.

As a Principal Partner, Sokin will be represented on the sleeves of the Chelsea FC men’s, women’s and academy home, away, and third kits from the 2026/27 season.

The partnership brings together two ambitious London-headquartered organisations with worldwide reach – a club with millions of fans across the world and a fintech platform through which businesses move more than $11 billion a year. A club of Chelsea’s scale works in many currencies every day, with partners, competitions and supporters around the world, and needs a financial partner built to handle that.

Sokin gives finance teams business payments, multi-currency accounts, foreign exchange, checkout and treasury in one place, so they spend less time juggling banks and providers and keep more of what they move.

As Official Business Payments and FX Partner, Sokin will simplify how Chelsea FC sends, receives and manages money in the currencies the club operates in.

The Sokin logo will feature on the sleeve of the Chelsea shirt for the first time [when the men’s team host Tottenham Hotspur at Stamford Bridge on Saturday 24th October.]

Jason Gannon, President at Chelsea FC said:

“At Chelsea, we seek to partner with organisations that share our ambition and innovative mindset. Sokin’s expertise in business payments, and their focus on making both simpler for the businesses they serve, makes them a natural fit for the Club. We are pleased to welcome Sokin to the Chelsea family and look forward to working together in the years ahead.”

Vroon Modgill, CEO and founder at Sokin said:

“Chelsea plays on the biggest stage in world football, and its business runs in dozens of currencies. Sokin was built for that with regulated, multi-currency payments and foreign exchange for organisations that operate internationally. We’re proud to be the platform behind the business payments and FX of one of the most iconic teams in football. Sokin’s platform serves businesses in more than 170 countries. We’re thrilled to be partners for the season ahead. An organisation as sophisticated as Chelsea doesn’t leave its finances to chance.”

About Sokin

Sokin is the financial layer global business runs on. Businesses can transact, convert and hold money in 70+ currencies across 170+ countries. Some businesses use Sokin to manage global finance in-house. Others build it into their products to power financial experiences for their customers. Businesses move more than $9 billion a year on licenses Sokin holds in 36+ countries and infrastructure Sokin owns.

About Chelsea Football Club

Chelsea Football Club is one of the biggest, most successful football clubs globally and our men’s team are reigning world champions, having won the four-yearly FIFA Club World Cup in 2025. Our women’s team, Chelsea Women, are also multiple trophy winners.

Founded in 1905, Chelsea is London’s most central football club, based at the iconic 40,000-capacity Stamford Bridge stadium. Nicknamed the Blues, the club lifted the Champions League for the first time in 2012 and domestically has won the Premier League five times, the FA Cup eight times, the Football League Cup five times and the Football League Championship once, in 1955.

The Chelsea Women’s team have enjoyed a huge amount of success and in 2025 won the FA Women’s Super League for a sixth consecutive year and the eighth time overall. The Women’s FA Cup has been won on six occasions. We have also captured the FA Women’s League Cup four times as well as reaching the UEFA Women’s Champions League final in 2021. In two seasons, 2020/21 and 2024/25, a domestic treble of trophies was secured.
