This Indian Startup Offers Engineers Guaranteed Jobs or Their Money Back
Skill Lync is a Chennai-based bootstrapped startup that has made it to US-based startup accelerator Y Combinator.;
- Specifically, this startup offers courses for engineers to help them gain the skills needed to get mechanical engineering jobs.
- The company is confident enough to offer programs such as its Hybrid Electric Vehicle program that offer a full refund if those who complete the course don't get a job.
- The problem with Skill Lync, Paneerselvam said, was that it originally didn't allow students to join its courses from anywhere.
- It required students to join a classroom, and he said the feedback from Y Combinator was that it wouldn't allow the startup to grow fast enough.
- Iyengar and Paneerselvam both realised that with their collective experience working as mechanical engineers abroad, they could help Indian students be better prepared for this first semester and learn skills that they'll need for jobs in this field.
