Yes, I think the service provided by the platform is useful and effective. In this way,employers will not receive many “copy-and-paste” applications from people who are not genuinely interested.

Entrepreneurship is not for everyone. However, for those who want to be an enterpreneur, it is the perfect place and time to launch a business while one is still at university.
Being a university student entrepreneur, I think, may have the following advantages.
First, universities host a lot of activities and events, which provide networking opportunities for student entrepreneurs. In these activities and events,student entrepreneurs may meet potential investors and clients, which is of great importance for a start-up bussiness.
Second,university students are free of many obligations to family. They don’t have to pay mortgages or support family. So they are more willing to take and embrace challenges, which is very important for starting a bussiness.
In addition, universities are a hotbed of knowledges. Students have access to valuable advice from professors and faculty.
Last but not least, students can promote their products or services by word of mouth. Word spreads quickly on campus and it will be your cheapest form of marketing. Friends’ recommendation is one of the most effective marketing strategies for any products or services and student entrepreneurs can make full use of this strategy.

Jack Ma suggests that young people who are under 20 should be good students, and just learn some experience if they do become entrepreneurs. I think this is a very reasonable suggestion. We, as college students, first need to, equip ourselves with knowledge. No matter what businesswe are going to venture into in the future, the knowledge we have got and the qualities we have developed in our academic work will prove to be valuable assets.
