Schulman was recognized in Business Week as one of the most watched people in the media. He was also awarded by Business Week as the Ernst & Young 2009 Entrepreneur of the Year.

Schulman also served on the advisory committee of Greycroft Partners, a private equity company focused on early-stage new media and technology companies.
On September 30, 2014, it was announced that Schulman would become CEO of PayPal, which would continue as a separate legal entity, split from eBay in 2015. His tenure was also marked by the $2.2 billion acquisition of European payment provider iZettle, PayPal’s second largest purchase to date. He has stated that his goals at PayPal include giving financial tools to the 70 million Americans underserved by the U.S. financial system.
Schulman has served as a member of the Board of Governors of Rutgers University from April 2008 until June 2013. He also sits as a board member at Autism Speaks which is an advocacy group that focuses on advancing research into the causes and treatment for people with autism.
The year 2001 was when Richard Branson invited Schulman to be the CEO of Virgin Mobile USA, Inc. at Virgin Mobile USA, Inc. Schulman led the company through its nationwide launch in 2002 , to becoming a publicly traded company in 2007 and then its eventual transfer to Sprint Nextel in 2009. His time at Virgin Mobile was praised by the growth of the company and its status as it became the “no hidden fees” carrier. At the time that Schulman resigned from Virgin Mobile, it had grown into one of the country’s leading wireless operators, with over 5 million users in total and $1.3 billion of annual revenue. After selling Virgin Mobile to Sprint Nextel, Schulman served as President of Sprint’s Prepaid group until his move into American Express.
When he was CEO of Virgin Mobile, Schulman led a partnership with StandUp For Kids, a nonprofit that distributes survival kits and a hotline number to homeless youth. To get a truer sense of what homeless kids experience, Schulman once spent 24 hours on the streets of New York City, unshaven, wrapped in a blanket, and without money, a watch, or a cell phone. “There’s a certain amount of deference paid to a C.E.O.,” he later said. “No one paid attention to me on the street. I consider myself a good communicator and a good salesman. It took me five hours of begging to raise less than a dollar. My entire concept of what is important changed. Time is usually my most valuable commodity, but for that 24 hours I had too much time. Forget Starbucks and a $4 latte – I walked two miles to find a 25-cent cup of coffee.”
