About

All things India and APAC at IBM, from telling stories and building social media strategy for LinkedIn, Instagram, email channels, engaging our CRM - I am building landing pages and feeds that invite you to come work a day with us Like an IBMer. My favourite part of my role is telling real stories, unfiltered and in my own words that actually bring value to a job seeker who’s looking to understand things better. Real > perfect and rehearsed, always! Building with Google, I was leading the Virtual Strategy for Branding, Aspiration Creation, Interview Prep and Engagement. The goal is to make the mammoth that is google accessible for students, through prep focused microsites, real googler shot content and constant engagement - we try to make make working at Google a reality for indian tech students across india :) It was my privilege to also shake hands and share stages with the brightest student minds and the kindest engineering leaders at google! As an Employer Branding Trainee at BCG, I enabled HR systems across Asia-Pacific to attract and retain quality talent. BCG taught me almost everything that I know, social media management, working with agencies and upholding strict brand standards, hosting and building webinars, writing messaging scripts, understanding geographical nuance, understanding consulting 0-1 and managing stakeholders! As a graduate of Applied Psychology at the University of Delhi, I gained interest in Organizational Psychology and Mental Health. I wanted to boost candidate experience across various functions and truly enable students to land their first job seamlessly. I believe that information about employment is often gatekept in closed circles and I want to make interview prep simpler for you! In my free time, I study employer brand and marketing trends. I am always open to have conversations on People, AI, Marketing, Coaching, Org Psychology and many other topics! Oh - I’ve also been debating for the better part of my life and if you’re a college kid looking for a job/internship that I can help with, please reach out because I will adopt you and help you in every way, always!!
