Rewind was a successful Employer Branding consulting and research firm focusing on university students and young professionals. I founded the company along with a friend/colleague during my last semester at Stockholm University and ran the company together with him for almost six years before we were acquired by Universum Communications. During this period, I had administrative and strategic responsibilities, and worked both with sales and product development. We focused on the Swedish and Nordic market and worked with over 200 customers in total over the years. We also started up our own panel of students “Studentpanelen” (25,000 members) and was the driving force behind the national career survey “KarriärIndex” conducted in 2006 and 2007 with over 22,000 participating students and young professionals each of the years.
