Since 2013, Bruin Entrepreneurs has successfully grown a community of students around the world, rising ventures, and professionals across industries passionate about new ideas and solutions to the growing changes our society challenges us to adapt to. Our successes in growing this network and our ability to fuel startups and young entrepreneurs to be successful comes from the commitments of our staff and leadership.
Throughout the UCLA Academic Year, Bruin Entrepreneurs holds two cycles to recruit talent from the undergraduate student community. At Bruin Entrepreneurs, you’ll have the opportunity to enhance and launch your entrepreneurial experience as you work with other passionate students and clients.
All applicants apply for a first-quarter Project Coordinator position. Project Coordinators learn about our organization, our goals and missions, and participate in an intensive entrepreneurship training series while handling working documents and outreach for their initiative.
After applicants submit their applications, our recruitment team will invite certain candidates to group interviews and final interviews.
