How it works

DISCOVER
Explore curated career possibilities you never knew existed
See suggested organizations, career micro-communities, and people to chat with, all tailored to match your interests, skill sets, and experiences.
SEARCH
Find people and organizations of interest
Find people to chat with based on their career pivots (e.g. "science to screenwriting") or find prospective organizations using keywords (e.g. "startup", "London", "anthropology").
BELONG
Join micro-communities that reflect who you are
Rather than scrolling endless public feeds, we encourage you to join supportive 'pods' of people who share similar identities, backgrounds, experiences, and interests.
SHARE
Post your experiences, projects, and hobbies on your profile
Introduce yourself beyond your 9-5. Review career and educational experiences you've had, focusing on the positive aspects and leaving the rest up for interpretation.
SYNC
Gain candid career insight through 1-1 conversations
Engage in exploratory chats with individuals who pique your curiosity to validate your next career move. Receive recommended prompts to keep it focused yet relaxed.
SAVE
Create your own private Career-Pinterest board
Rather than follow, we encourage you to save and cluster profiles of people and organizations you feel inspired by for easy reference.

About us

The discovery page of Spotify but with careers.
LinkedIn's candid and cool younger sibling.
Reddit-esque. Find your career community.

oyster is for anyone and everyone, 18 years or older.

We’re building a space where all career journeys are seen, celebrated, and shared. It's for non-corporate professionals: therapists, teachers, bakers, hair stylists, electricians, firefighters, and helicopter pilots. It’s for freelancers, solopreneurs, and multi-hyphenate side-hustlers: content creators, Etsy shop owners, Airbnb hosts, that consultant with a Substack, crypto enthusiasts, and engineers. It's for people looking for their next step: corporate burnouts, quiet quitters, those in roles being disrupted by A.I.

Whether you’re looking to make a career pivot, eager to find like-minded peers with the same niche interests, or just curious to see what organizations are out there — oyster is the candid, uplifting community you need to empower and inspire.

Our global vision is to help everyone achieve a career where they aren't just surviving, but thriving.
