Mikael Castaldo, Co-CEO, Kruzee

"Pocketed opened my eyes from the beginning to see what is available and what we are eligible for. I can safely say one of the great and heartwarming things that happened to me was that I could secure the Career Launcher funding, introduced by Pocketed, which fully reimbursed an intern’s salary."
