Launch Strong
A Career Navigator for College Students
Your student will spend four years building a foundation for their professional future. We make sure every semester, internship, and experience counts, and that they graduate knowing exactly who they are, what they want professionally, and how to go after it with confidence. And we do this without keeping them from enjoying the kind of exploration, self-discovery, social interactions, that should make those four years as exciting and fun as they should be!
Launch Strong is for families with the foresight to invest early and the perspective to see college for what can be: four years of professional development and career planning, not just a countdown to graduation. With the cost of an undergraduate education at an all-time high, the return on that investment deserves the same strategic attention as the investment itself. Because as useful as college career centers can be, they simply don’t have the bandwidth, the tools, or the long-arc process to do what a dedicated partner can.
What we promise your student:
You will not waste a single semester. Every experience, including the ones that do not go as planned, are instructive.
You will know yourself and your resume will reflect that. Both will keep evolving, and both will tell a coherent, compelling story.
You will never have to figure it out alone. We are with you at every stage: the discovery, the clarity, the pivots, the challenges and the big wins.
You will never miss a critical deadline. Every recruiting cycle, application window, and high-stakes moment is mapped, planned for, and locked in well in advance.
You will build your network before you need it. We’ll help you identify and cultivate important relationships: mentors, key academic advisors, alumni, and industry contacts proactively, so when opportunities open, you are already in the room.
Launch Strong is Spearmint’s most comprehensive offering. It’s a continuous, always-available coaching relationship that starts as early as freshman year and evolves alongside your student through every experience, internship, insight, and opportunity. It is a genuine partnership: a dedicated coach who knows your student deeply, tracks their growth in real time, and brings the expertise and honest perspective that turns four years of college into an intentional, confident career launch.
How It Works
From day one, we start to create a career narrative, living resume, and LinkedIn profilee that evolve with your student in real time so they are always ready, never scrambling. Every experience - including the unexpected or disappointing ones – creates insight. The sophomore who discovers they hate the major they thought they wanted is not behind - they are ahead. We help them act on it.
And when the high-stakes moments – including internship recruiting, job searches, and offer negotiations – arrive, we’re there to support.
Launch Strong is especially right for students who:
Are starting college without a clear career direction and want a structured, supported process to find one.
Have a path in mind but need guidance building the experience, network, and materials to pursue it with confidence.
Are academically strong but know they have not yet had exposure to the professional world.
Are approaching junior or senior year and have realized the career center is not going to be enough.
Want to compete for the best opportunities and will not leave that to chance.
How to Get Started
Launch Strong begins with a complimentary consultation to discuss where your student is, where they want to go, and the right entry point into the engagement. From there, we build a plan and a relationship as unique as they are.
