💡 GenZ Career Hacks — Indore Specific

• IIM Indore open events: Alumni talks, startup pitches — attend these even if you’re not an IIM student. Network builds here.
• LinkedIn “Indore” filter: Seriously underused. Post your work, tag Indore companies — recruiters locally active.
• Co-working spaces: 91Springboard, IndiQube — affordable hot desks. Surrounding network is worth more than the desk cost.
• Freelance first: Many Indore businesses still prefer first hiring via project — convert to full-time is easier here than metros.
• IIT Indore research internships: Even non-IIT students can apply for sponsored research positions. Opens global academic doors.

“Main UX designer hoon. Parents chahte the main CA karun. Unhone 2 saal tak convince kiya. Maine LinkedIn pe ek Indore startup ko DM kiya — woh mere portfolio se impressed the. Pehla project ₹15,000 ka tha. Ab mere paas 3 retainer clients hain, ₹80,000/month net. Aur subah wala poha-jalebi abhi bhi ₹30 mein milta hai. Koi Bengaluru shift karke yeh deal nahi mili hoti.”
