This is a job market for talented youngsters without the school records to prove what they're capable of. And for employers who know that bad school reports and strange gaps in education careers can be an invitation to take a closer look.
We connect unorthodox minds and not-the-norm CVs. 😁
We all know:
In school, even bright minds can fail miserably.
Promising youngsters occasionally drop out of school or take a break that ends up lasting years.
Some folks require an entire series of fresh starts in life before everything falls into place.
And many of us simply need a lucky coincidence for the penny to drop!
We know that there are unlimited reasons why life does not always go according to plan. What we didn't know: Just how big this topic is.

However, until this happens, the unnormed job market addresses the unorthodox on both ends:
The employee and the employer. And, oh dear, they really thrive on it!
Turns out, this is just the thing for artistic and creative minds, for free thinking and enterprising souls:
They know what it is like to struggle for motivation, for perspectives, for recognition, for a chance.
An unorthodox CV doesn't strike them as weird at all. It feels quite familiar.
They've matured and will start a new job without a sense of entitlement.
They celebrate the benefit of doubt.
Throwbacks will not discourage them.
Criticism? They can handle it. They can act on it.
Life has taught them to think around corners.
