More than anything, Build has been the source of a mindset shift for me!
Being a recent graduate, I didn’t even apply for campus placements. Why? Because I started to believe that my skills and the proof of work will speak for themselves. And Build gave me the confidence & the validation that I was correct.
Lo and behold! Here, I was introduced to my current full-time role & a community that I’m running on the side. The best part? These opportunities approached me, rather than me looking out for them! 🤯
I came in to C5 with an idea - to build a reading accountability platform. Thanks to the community, it moulded into a completely different form, one which I couldn’t have possibly imagined. All I then did was properly document the details in a Notion doc, which - again thanks to community - reached the eyes of Swapnil. That’s how I became a part of Reademy Cafe.
And then my collaborations on a few projects as a frontend developer marketed my skills. Akhil was kind enough to reach out with an offer for Asset Money. That’s where I’m working full-time now.
It’s been a game changing experience for me and I’m sure is going to be for a lot of other people too!
