The Spark
Yash Bright
Founder, SkillSim
Combined experience of 5+ years in industries like finance, marketing, consulting, strategy, automotive manufacturing, operations, supply chain, hospitality, graphic design, event management and real estate.
"Having personally faced issues when deciding my career path and having seen my peers and other students face issues with deciding what field they want to get into, I realized that there is a gap between career guidance and practical application.
Be it getting into marketing, finance, law, medicine, engineering, etc., it is hard for students to decide solely based on their limited knowledge through academics, theories, information from the internet, friends, family and relatives.
SkillSim wants to change this dynamic in India by providing hands-on internship-like experiences to students and help them make informed choices in selecting the right career path for them".
