Thanks  yourstory ‘Three idiots’ are building Awesummly product to digest news Nitin, Ankit, and Deepak were wandering from one company to another without direction or guidance in search of the first step. It was sheer fate that brought the three entrepreneurs together. Before meeting each other, each of them had unsuccessfully tried their hand at several startup ideas with different teams but had always failed due to unfavorable circumstances and lack of motivation in teams. It is always difficult to pursue entrepreneurship after a stage of life when you can’t risk losing a regular source of income and have family pressure and responsibilities.. Inception of the Idea A night in U-block Gurgaon, when the power had gone off for hours, saw the beginning of new ideas. Deepak came out of the building to get some fresh air and found his neighbour, Nitin, sitting outside the building. That night they talked for four hours and found they shared a similar bent of mind.

He’s more artist than mechanic. So one son did everything momma wanted, while the other listened to his gut and went his own way. They...

Learn technology as past time and take technology courses 6. Take extra curricular courses like dancing, playing guitar and travelling. 7. Write novel After leaving college since today (2015), I worked with many companies and I am currently with Housing.com, which is my 6th company in 6 years. 1. While I was in my first company Onmobile, I gave GRE and got a shit score in English, though I got full in Maths. I declared GRE is not my cup of tea, so will be GMAT and CAT. Point 1 ruled out. 2. All along I have been preparing for interview, my target was to prepare to crack Google interviews. I never got calls from Google, though I applied in their career site. Anyway I was never prepare...
