On a Sunday morning in November 2019, I got a message from bitgrit Inc.’s Community Operations Project Manager Sarfraz Petkar that reads “Would you like to be bitgrit Campus Ambassador?” As the type of person who never lets an opportunity like this slip away, I naturally replied “Yes!”.

Here, my journey with bitgrit began. Over the next several weeks, I got to know more about the program and work with Sarfraz to promote it, learning much along the way.
Then I prepared myself with working on my application and profile, research about the company, and applied for the Campus Ambassador Program.

After applying to become a bitgrit Campus Ambassador, I led an event in collaboration with E-cell Jecrc University called Ideathon 4.0 which was having the participation of 300, and the main reason for this event was to aware students about tech and startup ecosystem.

After the event, I got an email from Sarfraz saying that I cleared the first round of the bitgrit Campus Ambassador screening process and that the next step was a Skype interview. In the interview, I met the CAP Lead, Anagh, who briefed me about the program. And then just last weekend, I got an email from bitgrit’s Digital Marketing Project Manager Kelly Martin saying that I had been selected for bitgrit’s Campus Ambassador Digital Marketing Internship. I was so excited!
