More about Shivam Tiwari

Before turning 24, built India's largest Campus placement platform with a reach of 1200+ colleges with the core being " Lack of access to opportunities but later realised that the larger problem is a huge gap between the World of Education and the Job market " 

which can only be solved through a Community based Exposure platform where anyone can experience " How is it to work in the company " before even applying to it.

Then What? We just close the last platform and started the new one ( Its not as easy as it sounds but ya, we made it )

Now, During the day, I talk to people, in colleges about " How to discover and select the right career options " 

At Night, I work on making discovering professional career options like marketing, sales, product, vc, analytics..... " as Cool and Fun as " dance, singing.........

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”
