Careers

Hiring Full-time Matchmakers!

BeyondChai is looking for professionals who are not afraid of taking on the challenge of the marriage crisis facing the Muslim community.

As a matchmaker you will be spending time understanding the needs of your clients and matching them according to relationship aspirations and compatibility. As a trusted advisor, you will have honest conversations with your clients, helping them navigate through the marriage process, setting expectations & reality checks, and become a sounding board and finding pathways to help clients be successful.

Success at BeyondChai is not all about delivering matches but its also about helping clients successfully navigate through a process that is often daunting, overwhelming, and exhausting. It requires you to befriend your clients and to be seen as a trusted advisor and an attache.

As a matchmaker you will employ positive psychology to identify and build on clients core strengths and help them be more hopeful during the matching process. You will also nurture positive emotions that will broaden the thinking of your clients and enable them to connect more closely with their prospects.

As a matchmaker you will approach each of the clients with a positive and upbeat outlook and help them see the big picture rather than focusing on small annoyances & differences as they consider prospects.
