Ditto Insurance opens doors to UPSC aspirants
In a significant move, Ditto Insurance is reaching out to those who recently faced setbacks in the 2023 Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exams, offering them a unique employment opportunity.
This tech-backed company is supported by Zerodha’s Nithin Kamath. The company is tapping into a pool of candidates who, despite not passing, have demonstrated exceptional dedication and effort.
Recognizing the gruelling nature of the UPSC exams, which are considered among India’s most challenging, Ditto Insurance has created a specialized hiring process specifically for these aspirants.
Bhanu Harish Gurram, co-founder of Ditto Insurance, empathizes deeply with the candidates’ situation.
On social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and LinkedIn, he highlighted the disparity between the number of exam takers and those who actually succeed. He said that more than 99% of UPSC aspirants fail, stressing the high level of commitment shown by all participants.
Ditto Insurance invites these former UPSC candidates to join their advisory team, promising comprehensive training and support from the ground up.
Bhanu assures that no prior work experience is necessary to start a career with Ditto Insurance, making it an appealing option for those looking to shift their career paths.
This initiative came shortly after the UPSC released its final results on April 16, which recommended about 1016 candidates for various esteemed positions in various services like IAS, IPS etc.
For the vast majority who did not secure a position, Ditto Insurance’s offer represents a hopeful alternative, providing a second chance at a rewarding career.
Ditto Insurance’s outreach is a testament to the company’s innovative approach and its willingness to invest in the vast potential of these dedicated individuals.
It not only offers a fresh start to many but also highlights the possibilities for meaningful private sector engagement with talented individuals from diverse backgrounds.
This program sets a precedent for other companies to follow, suggesting a new way to harness the untapped talent of those who come close to—but do not pass—national examinations.
