'Just work hard and build your personal brand and opportunities will come' is the BIGGEST LIE in today's job market. Cancel me for saying this but this is the truth. Here's why 🧵

@SerialPisces March 5 :P

I should start recording videos with my thoughts, my day, my routine, the people I meet and I am grateful for. I should highlight things from my day just like I underline lines in the books I read.

The best compliment is when someone compliments you for the kind of person you are.

@rohit_2702 Bhej du tumhari gf ko?

@ChandniDD @saurabh @annkur @karkaremtg @brishtiatc4e Context toh de do thoda 😭

@ChandniDD Haina I know this feeling :)

Update: I know all of you had different thoughts on this recent initiative that we did. As bad as it could get, we received around 1500+ call requests, 530+ completed calls across different categories - resume review being the best. It's exhilarating to see the responses so far both by the experts and consumers. While some might say we were charging or the experts were charging for referrals, all of this was FREE. It was all a game of marrying the supply and demand. No one thought delivering groceries in 10 minutes was possible. No one thought 10-minute calls with the astrologers were possible. But they made it happen. No one thought access to anyone could be as simple as a phone call but here we are :)

@liftplaycode @mannupaaji @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart haanji that's the point.

Thought here - When you go for an interview - you see interviewers taking interviews in 15 mins. I have personally seen people sending resumes and getting referred to a company. Why do you think 10 minutes cannot help someone ask a few questions related to their resume or help the other person with some tips to improve their resume? Agreed. 10 minutes cannot be enough in every case. Some exceptions could be there but don't you think that they can connect again? This is just one offering right? And, we have seen people getting referred during our beta-test.

@liftplaycode @mannupaaji @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart I get your point here. We should have presented it a bit well. Also, why wouldn’t someone do it in 10 minutes!?

@liftplaycode @mannupaaji @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart :))) Tbh, if you see on the product- the calls are free!

@shantanugoel haha, FYI - we didn't collect any information via that tool. We created it solely for fun purposes to try something new.

@Kulfei Broooo😭😭😭😭😭 Sunflower to a friend!? Especially when someone came only to give it to you?!!!???

@pranavdotexe @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart We are taking care of the second option.

@pranavdotexe @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart it's free for now. But we'll try different models going ahead.

@pranavdotexe @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart This is one of the fastest-growing segments so far. The last time we tried this, we had 1300+ calls attempted and 270+ calls completed within 4 hours. The traffic numbers were also crazy considering that we didn't do any paid ads.

@shivanuinblr thanks 🥰🥰🥰 Sending some for you too 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Hi Shantanu, I understand your concern but respectfully, just wanted to address it once. - Experience is for the public to judge. All the profile statistics are in the public domain. Their experience, booking count, ratings, testimonials, and everything else are available to the public to decide whether they want to connect with them or not. - It was something new that we tried and retracted within hours of launching. From the beginning, it was not about fooling anyone. - We are right now focussing on solving the issues of a recent graduate or a young professional in the market. Our focus has always been on accessibility and actionable insights. Referral is just one form of it.

@dr_MNY @ZeptoNow @SwiggyInstamart yes
