I am on a mission to bridge the gap between talented job seekers and their dream companies through ReferralWorld, an AI-driven HR ecosystem. As a final-year student at Chandigarh University, I recognized that traditional job boards were broken—resumes were disappearing into "black holes." and referrals were hard to track. I built ReferralWorld to change that. What we do at ReferralWorld: AI Resume Scoring: Our proprietary tool uses LLMs to provide instant ATS-compatibility checks, helping candidates hit an 85+ score before they hit 'Apply.' Smart Chatbot: A 24/7 AI Career Assistant that guides seekers through mock interviews and application strategies. Verified Referral Network: We connect skilled job seekers directly with employees at top tech firms, ensuring their applications are actually seen. Traction & Impact: 🚀 Scaled to 50+ active users within the first week. 🛠️ Developed a fully-fledged MVP featuring an AI chatbot and resume optimizer. 📈 Currently processing referrals for top-tier companies in India and the US. I am currently focused on integrating advanced Agentic AI features and scaling our recruiter network. I’m always open to connecting with fellow founders, HR leaders, and anyone passionate about the future of work.
