Start-Up Founder Shocked After Getting 3000 Resumes in 2 Days

Springworks start-up founder Kartik Mandaville has made a startling revelation that points out the evolved expectations of applicants today. He revealed that he received over 3000 job applications within just 48 hours after he posted about the job availability online, as per India Today. The start-up founder has further added that he has received 12,500 applications so far, and highlighted what he believes is one of the biggest factors behind the huge numbers of people interested in this job.

The nature of this job, and all other job requirements of various departments of Springworks, is permanent work-from-home, which is the core reason behind the massive interest for this job. This is among the many indicators of increasing expectations of job flexibility among aspiring professionals in the post-pandemic world. Another major factor behind the tremendous influx of applications is the massive layoffs that have taken place in several tech conglomerates around the world that have a strong presence in India. Since most of these companies are best from the recession-hit Western world, it has directly impacted India’s tech sector. However, this has consequently added a boost to the country’s tech start-up ecosystem, which will likely take a few years before gaining mighty momentum.
