Summary

Founder and product‑led CEO building a candidate‑first career platform. Avi is leading myTrudy, a personality‑driven career product that applies psychometric science, AI, and labor‑market data to help job seekers discover fits, craft role‑specific resumes, and map career paths. The platform and its about page emphasize a subscription model and tools aimed at empowering candidates rather than employers. mytrudy+2
