How D·Pathway turns briefs into real hires
One loop, end to end — a company sets a real problem, students prove themselves on it, and the work does the talking.
An organisation posts a brief
A real, bounded project — with a deadline, a deliverable format and clear IP terms. No busywork, no trick take-homes.
Students deliver the work
They accept the terms and submit one real deliverable — solo, or as a small team led by one student.
You invite the best
Review the actual work, score it 1–5, leave feedback, and invite the strongest to interview.

What is D·Pathway?
A project platform where Kigali's students prove themselves on real, bounded briefs from organisations — judged on the work they deliver, not a CV.
Who can use D·Pathway?
Any organisation in Rwanda — from cooperatives and small businesses to startups and larger companies — plus students and recent graduates.
Is D·Pathway free to use?
Yes. Students and organisations join for free. Some briefs also carry a cash prize, funded by the organisation that posts them.
How is the work evaluated?
You score each deliverable from 1–5, leave written feedback, and mark whether the student is selected for an interview. The work speaks for itself.
How do I post a brief?
Create an organisation account, click 'New project,' and fill in the brief, deadlines, deliverable format and IP terms — it takes a few minutes.
Can students work in teams?
Yes. A student applies as the lead and invites teammates. Accepting the application accepts the whole team — up to four people.
How are students matched to my brief?
Students browse the open catalogue and apply to briefs that fit their skills. You review every applicant and accept the ones you want.
Can I edit an evaluation or allow a resubmission?
Yes. Organisations can edit an evaluation, and students can resubmit after feedback — the evaluation is then flagged for a quick re-review.
Can I contact the students directly?
Once you select a team and review their work, you invite the strongest to an interview — arranged directly with them, off-platform.
Who owns the work and the IP?
Every brief states its IP terms up front, and students accept them before applying — so ownership is clear and agreed before any work starts.
