Digital economist Sarah Bana has been helping people find work for a long time. As an undergraduate at the University of California Irvine, she'd sit down with friends to clean up their resumes and brainstorm potential jobs on campus. But not just any job; Bana always wanted to match the right person to the right position. "I started fairly early understanding the campus environment and job space," she says. "I'd ask'Do you want to work at the library where it's quiet or in the dining hall where it's louder but exciting and where you might meet new people? Or do you want to work at the Cross-Cultural Center because you care about diversity and equity on campus?' For me, it's always been intuitive to help people find their fit in an environment where they can work but also thrive."
