NAUKRI MAN OF INDIA – Sanjeev Bikhchandani: The Man Who Redefined How India Finds Jobs

Описание: In this landmark first episode of our podcast, we sit down with Sanjeev Bikhchandani: The Naukri Man of India, the entrepreneur who fundamentally redefined how India finds jobs and builds internet businesses. He built one of the country’s most influential internet companies — Naukri.com and Info Edge.

From growing up in a middle-class Indian family to studying at some of India’s most respected institutions, Mr. Bikhchandani reflects on the early experiences that shaped his values and long-term thinking. He shares what inspired him to leave a stable corporate role at HMM (now GSK) to start Naukri.com in the late 1990s, long before India’s startup boom.
We dive into the early struggles of building Naukri and Info Edge, raising capital when funding was scarce, navigating India’s startup ecosystem in the ’90s, and the principles that helped Naukri become a trusted household name.

The conversation also covers startups and investing in India, including early bets on Zomato and Policybazaar, what he looks for in founders, common mistakes young entrepreneurs make, and sectors that could shape the next wave of growth in Bharat.

On leadership and values, he shares insights on long-term thinking, how his view of money and success has evolved, advice for young Indians, and his perspective on India’s digital future, AI, education, and innovation.

A must-watch for founders, students, professionals, and anyone interested in Indian startups and entrepreneurship.
