Karna Chokshi, COO of Apna.co, added, 'Building a DIY stack across job portals, dialers, speech AI, scoring engines, and CRMs is both expensive and technically complex. With Apna, we've unified sourcing and AI-driven screening into a single seamless workflow - no integrations, no third-party tools, no extra effort.'

Neither an engineering degree nor studied at IIT, IIM, IIIT, or VIT, yet got record breaking package at Microsoft as… she is…
It is often believed that only students from IITs and IIMs do well and secure the top placements in the best companies. But it is not true. Several students who pursue their courses from other institutes and colleges also secure jobs in leading companies, including Infosys, TCS, Meta, Apple, Google, and Microsoft. One such inspiring person is Rushali Pawar, currently working at Microsoft in Bengaluru, Karnataka. Rushali Pawar is a Communications Specialist at Microsoft India Development Center. What makes her journey phenomenal is that she did not attend a leading institution such as IIT and IIM. However, she is working for one of the biggest companies, Microsoft. Where did she complete her education? From the very beginning, Rushali showed a strong interest in writing, communication, and content creation, as reflected on her LinkedIn profile. She has experience in corporate communication, content strategy, research, and storytelling. According to her LinkedIn profile, Rushali completed her Bachelor of Arts – BA, English Language and Literature/Letters at Stella Maris College, followed by her Master of Arts – MA, English Language and Literature/Letters at the University of Leeds. In her career, she focused primarily on brand messaging, internal communication, and strategic content. She worked as a Trainee Journalist at the Times of India in 2012. Later, she worked as a Junior Writer at Time Out Group plc and became a Sub-Editor at Deccan Chronicle Holdings Ltd. Later, she worked as a Cortana Writer at Microsoft in 2018. She joined Microsoft in August 2021 as a Senior Content Writer. In October 2023, she joined Microsoft India Development Center as a Communications Specialist. 'A meticulous, innovative writer with experience in corporate communications, content strategy, research, and storytelling,' reads ber LinkedIn bio. Today, many people believe that without a degree from IITs or some prestigious institution, it is impossible to land a job in top tech companies. Rushali was able to prove otherwise. She showed that it is very much possible to connect with global companies without going through 'big-name' institutions—with talent, effort, and skills.
