Humans of Dunzo

“Close to 2 years back, I tried my hand at several jobs but nobody really wanted to give me one as I was still a student pursuing Bcom. After my father passed away, the responsibility to take care of my mother and my younger sister fell upon me and I almost gave up and planned to return to my hometown to pursue agriculture when I got the chance to work for Dunzo. At Dunzo, I’ve had the chance to learn so much and started off by doing documentation for HR & Legal, picking up and delivering documents, and assisting the admin team. Slowly I also started taking care of the travel desk for a bit and even helped manage Kabeer’s (Dunzo Co-founder & CEO) travels which was all new to me. Today, I work with the legal team as a paralegal supporting all compliance and documentation needed while also balancing a distance education course in Bcom. I’m crazy about cricket when I’m not working and recently learned to make tea during the lockdown. My happiness mantra is to love people and be loved and I have felt it more so with the people I work with at Dunzo.”
