FAQs

Is Endorsement free?

We charge a $200 (₹16,650) fee in order to coordinate the endorsement process and compensate the experts for their time.

However, we have currently waived off the fees for November 2023 in order to make it accessible for young professionals to get Endorsed.

Why get Endorsed?

Being Endorsed by industry experts helps you stand out from your peers. You earn a letter of recommendation from the industry leaders which validates the skills you possess through an unbiased process.

The Endorsement also gets you access to our career assistance program. We help you build clarity around roles to pursue, make introductions to hiring partners and assist you with the interview process.

You also get an opportunity to engage with other professionals who have impressed industry experts. This will enable you to increase your ‘luck surface area’ and land referrals to opportunities.

How does Endorsement work?

Endorsement process is run over a 2-4 week window and you will be tested on role-specific superpowers that separate the great professionals from average ones.
