Noa is also the co-founder of Dana and Noa Make My Career (in Hebrew this makes sense!), a leading job search platform in Israel with more than 90,000 followers and a 250,000 monthly reach that offers career opportunities in the humanities and social sciences, as well as a series of offline career development workshops through dozens of organizations throughout Israel. The nonprofit startup strives to democratize career opportunities.
