Startup founders share the 10 biggest mistakes job applicants make

Wondering how to get a job at a startup? Many job seekers in India don't realize that interviewing at a startup is very different from interviewing at an established company. Startups are ubiquitous in India, and working for one isn't considered as risky or unusual as it was a decade ago. In spite of this, however, job applicants are still having a hard time figuring out how to approach startup job interviews. In this video, ten startup founders share the biggest mistakes that they have seen job applicants make while applying to work at a startup. SECTIONS 00:21 Anuj Kacker, Disguising Weakness as Strength 01:03 Ranjeet Pratap Singh, Feeling Entitled 01:26 Suresh Rangarajan, Asking Silly Questions 01:50 Arshan Vakil, Failing to Research the Startup's Product 02:16 Nikhil Sikri, Doing No Research, and Dressing Too Casually 03:18 Rohit Shroff, Randomly Choosing Startups to Join 03:47 Anurag Avula, Not Being Humble 04:17 Anand Ayyadurai, Not Coming Prepared 05:07 Sujayath Ali, Applying to Work at Companies Which Are Incompatible with Your Personality 06:56 Jayant Jha, Not Knowing What Is Expected of You in the Role Anuj Kacker, co-founder and COO of MoneyTap, has seen some pretty ridiculous things while interviewing job applicants. One mistake that he says a lot of job seekers make is disguising their weaknesses as their strengths when asked to name one thing that they struggle with or need to improve upon. Ranjeet Pratap Singh, co-founder and CEO of Pratilipi, doesn't like it when employees feel entitled to the job that they are applying for. People like this, he says, aren't a job fit for the startup. Suresh Rangarajan, founder and CEO of Colive, says that he doesn't like it when a job applicant asks silly questions during an interview. What questions does he consider silly? Asking about work hours or holidays. Arshan Vakil, co-founder and CEO at Enguru, really doesn't like it when he discovers that a job seeker hasn't checked out the Enguru app. He says that if an applicant hasn't taken the time to check out a startup's primary product, they don't want the job badly enough. Nikhil Sikri, co-founder and CEO of Zolo, says that he has participated in job interviews where the applicants didn't even realize that he was the CEO of the company until he told them! He also cautions against dressing too casually for a startup interview. Rohit Shroff, co-founder and CEO of Holidify, thinks that job applicants who are applying for the sake of applying aren't a great fit for his startup. He believes that job seekers should research the company that they're applying to work for, and make sure that the startup is a good fit for them. Anurag Avula, co-founder and CEO of Shopmatic, has interviewed several job seekers who aren't humble. They think that being full of themselves makes them look confident and impressive. However, Anurag believes that these kinds of people aren't will suited to startup environments, where teamwork is paramount. Anand Ayyadurai, co-founder and CEO of Vogo, says that a lot of people who apply to work at Vogo are approaching their interview as though it isn't important. They haven't done their research, and they don't take the Vogo job application process seriously. Anand thinks that this is a big mistake, because if you're planning on working for a company for a year or more, you had better commit to the company before you sit down in front of a hiring manager. Sujayath Ali, co-founder and CEO of Voonik, says that one of the pillars holding Voonik up is niceness. In fact, the N in Voonik stands for the word nice. If job applicants don't come across as nice during their interview, he doesn't give them a job, because their personality is incompatible with Voonik's culture. Jayant Jha, co-founder and CEO of Yaantra, says that one should be interested in and ask about what would be expected of them if they were to be hired by Yaantra. Failing to ask this crucial question implies to the hiring manager that you are more concerned with getting an offer letter than you are with actually contributing to Yaantra.
