About us

Founded in 2023, the idea behind Network Tree originated when our Founder, Carly, went through the MBA internship recruitment process as a first-year MBA candidate at Columbia Business School. To network for internship opportunities, she spoke with various recruiters, school alumni, LinkedIn connections, friends of friends... basically anyone that would speak with her.

Due to the number of networking calls she was conducting, she realized that she didn't have a good way to keep track of the conversations. Carly also realized she needed a way to set reminders to follow up with the people she spoke to. She built her own excel spreadsheet and looked for existing tools, but quickly realized that existing solutions did not meet her needs. As such, she became determined to build the solution.
