Project and Innovation Manager

As a scholarship coach and career strategist, I've helped over 700+ students and jobseekers achieve their academic and professional goals. With a focus on fully-funded scholarships at top universities and successful careers, I'm passionate about guiding individuals to realize their full potential.

With my expertise in scholarship applications and career development, I provide personalized coaching and support to help students secure funding for their education. 

I also help entry-level graduates navigate the tumultuous job market in these difficult times. My approach combines practical advice on resume writing, interview skills, and networking with a deep understanding of soft skills and job readiness.

As a result of my guidance, many of my clients have successfully been accepted into prestigious institutions and launched fulfilling careers. 

I firmly believe in giving back what I receive. I was fortunate to attain world-class education through fully funded scholarships/fellowships. After that, I identified a need for more awareness of global opportunities for students and professionals aspiring to pursue education abroad.

I work toward addressing:

👨🏽‍🏭  the social mobility gap and ensure more people are internationally mobile 
👨🏽‍💻  provide high-impact support by teaching hard & soft skills to help people secure professional employment and scholarships
🎓 teach people that there is always an alternate path than the one which they're on

So whether you're a student seeking scholarship support or an entry-level professional seeking career guidance, I'm here to help. 

Let's work together to achieve your academic and professional dreams.

Here's a little bit about who I am personally:

I'm a motivator and ideas guy who is all about finding innovative solutions. I love finding new ways to solve old problems.

Another thing you should know about me is that I'm always up for adventure and travel. Nothing lights up my soul quite like a beautiful journey.

In my free time, you might find me playing cricket, squash, badminton, hiking, cycling, reading books, traveling, giving talks!🏏🏸🥾✈️🚅🧳💬

I’m always looking forward to an insightful conversation with anyone from my community over coffee/tea ☕🍵

Yesterday, I received this message

“Hey Pavan.
I just want to thank you for posting so many opportunities. I happen to save one of your european PhD positions and apparently apply for it. It turned out to be a Marie Curie fellowship and, yes, I made into it. I'm glad I could see that post on my feed that day. 
Thank you!”

I sat with it for a few minutes

The opportunity was free
The post was free

No course
No paid mentorship
No consultation call

Just a free LinkedIn post → a life-changing '𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗲 𝗣𝗵𝗗 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽'

And it reminded me

You never know who’s quietly reading
You never know which link becomes someone’s turning point
You never know which small action shifts someone’s entire path

Because impact doesn’t always need a price tag
Sometimes it just needs to be shared

One random week in June
A queer student told me,
“I don’t think Europe is for someone like me.”

Two weeks later
Another messaged, deleted, messaged again
(“I’m scared people will judge me for even trying.”)

Sometime in August
10+ queer youth joined our list -
almost all privately
Safety > visibility

Early September
I began reaching out to NGOs
One intro became five
Five became twenty
Suddenly, I was speaking with people doing real work in queer spaces 

Late September
Co-creator dialogues started
Ideas, caution, excitement (all mixed together)

Early October
First conversation with British Council, India
Didn’t expect it
Didn’t plan it
But it opened something

Last week
My mentee, the one who whispered her dream -
submitted her application
She hit “send” with shaking hands
I did too

The last six months have been messy, emotional, and unexpectedly grounding

I started The Growth Collective for one reason
To help queer youth in India apply for fully funded Master’s programs
(Erasmus Mundus & more)
without shrinking who they are

The plan was simple
→ build a safe community
→ bring in global mentors
→ map scholarships clearly
→ launch the first cohort quietly

Reality looked more like

Day 1: A 2-hour call with a student doubting she belonged in global spaces
Day 57: Conversations with NGOs across the country
Day 89: Co-creator dialogues turning into real partnerships
Day 95: British Council India showing interest
Day 110: Global mentors joining from multiple time zones
Day 120+: Still building, still listening, still learning

Calls-to-Action
🟣 If you’re a queer youth in India - comment “WE”
🟣 If you want to mentor (from anywhere) - comment “MENTOR”
🟣 If you want to co-create / join the team - comment “TEAM”
🟣 If you want to support or fund - comment “SUPPORT”

Prefer privacy?
🟢 growthcollective.org.in

P.S. Speaking with 20+ NGOs and allies taught me one thing —
community ecosystems already exist
We’re just weaving the threads together

P.P.S. If we get this right, it won’t be a “program.”
It’ll be a movement

Hiring Drive 6: Hiring Associate/Junior Data Scientists In India

Hey guys, 

Last week was huge in terms of a lot of career wins for me. 

I am in India visiting my family and friends and in this time my hiring drives post went viral in India and almost all of the top IITs and IIMs including IIT Bombay, IIT Kanpur, IIM Bangalore, IIM C, XLRI to name a few have invited me to speak about AI Based recruiting and what’s the future of recruiting and skill based hiring at their esteemed institution. 

Coming from India, these were the top schools that all my friends and I aspired/dreamed for, worked hard towards it but utilmately wasn’t able to make it. It was always my dream to go there, study in the campus, however it couldn’t happen as a student but I’ll be going as a guest speaker soon. This has been a huge win for me and this couldn’t have been possible without your love 

To add to that, I know last week we had only one hiring drive, but this week we have planned for atleast 3 different hiring drives and for the next one

Hiring Drive 6: Also for the next hiring drive we have partnered with our biggest companies yet more on that soon and in this hiring drive we are only looking to hire candidates on Initial OPT and STEM OPT because a lot of these students are troubled the most by the changing H-1B laws, 100K and what not. 

Let’s make life easier for people on these visas because clearly a lot of other companies aren’t doing so. 

Here’s to make hiring quicker and transparent for all. 

Just do this: If your on STEM OPT and don’t have a paid job then comment stem opt and if your on initial OPT and don’t have a job and looking for paid role the comment OPT down below in the comment section.  For people looking for job change or switch please type switch. 

Thanks :)

Hey Guys,

Wanted to remind everyone, this is not a hiring drive,  I just wanted to hire couple of people who would work with me in building the smartest feedback/AI recruiter model in the world. It's a very high impact role, chance to scale it to 

As you'll might know, recruitment is one of the most human-centric functions in any organization, and while AI can make it faster, smarter, and more predictive, it still struggles to understand context, culture, empathy, and potential the way people do.

That said, the future isn’t about humans versus AI, it’s about humans with AI.
At our lean, fast-moving team, we’re working on building the next generation of recruiting systems , models and data sets designed for domain-specific hiring. We’re developing machine learning models that can understand the nuanced patterns of what makes a candidate successful in a particular field, and training them to deliver high-quality, context-aware recommendations.

But to do this right, we need people (domain experts who understand what “great” looks like in their industries). Whether it’s tech, healthcare, finance, marketing, or manufacturing, each domain has its own unique language, expectations, and success signals that machines alone cannot comprehend without human guidance.

I am mainly looking for people from India currently pursuing their PhD or Masters or Bachelors in the ML/AI/ML research/Data science space. 

All of these are paid Roles, remote and open to both internship/full-time/part-time roles.

The ideal hire should be comfortable working with voice AI models, building ML pipelines, take ownership, efficient in model training (Fine-tuning, pre-training, post-training etc)

Apart from that We’re currently also looking for human experts to help train and refine these models by labeling data, analyzing candidate success factors, and ensuring the outputs are reliable, fair, and effective. 

To sum it up these are the roles that we are hiring for

1. Voice AI model experts/researchers.
2. ML Engineers/Researchers
3. Model training experts 
4. Software engineers. 

If you’re passionate about the intersection of human insight and AI technology and want to help shape the future of how companies find, assess, and hire talent we’d love to collaborate with you.

Drop me a message or comment down below if you’re interested in learning more about partnering on this project and let me know which role you would be interested to work in, by typing the name of the role, will help us reach out to you'll better.  Let’s build the future of recruiting together where human intelligence and artificial intelligence finally work in perfect sync.

The process will be fast and should close the entire hiring process in 2 weeks time. For the right talent, age/college is no bar. We are just looking for people who are hungry to create and make an impact on the universe.

Hey guys, 

I heard people's feedback and the 500 people out of the 6500+ people who had participated in the Associate Product Management Test, whose feedback was pending has now been completed. If you still haven't received it yet then dm me or comment down below, there might be some issue because of which you've not received your feedback yet. 

I ran the script last morning and its finally done. As mentioned before my aim is to make feedback a mandatory component of hiring process throughout the globe across all the domains.

Let's make hiring more transperant, feedback mandatory for all and increase the speed for hiring/roles closure to less than 2 weeks from the first screening to offer letter. 

I am very firm on this mission and would love for you'll to join me on this as well. 

Next up, would be sending out mass feedback emails to all the 320 people who participated in the Product Manager Assessment Test. Stay tuned for it. 

Congratulations to everyone for participating in this assessment test and best of luck for everyone who crossed the 80% mark, hope you'll hear about the next steps very soon. Stay tuned for more. 

#hiring #jobsearch #h1bhiring #indiahiring #hiringdrive #jobsearch #communitybuilding.

Hey Guys, 

I came across multiple people telling me this so I wanted to address once and for all 

I know of atleast 4 different email accounts that are pretending to me and sending you emails on behalf of me that they are guaranteeing you job placements in 60-90 days in top big tech companies, a lot of them are using my LinkedIn display picture to scam people as well and charging people for resume services and also charging people to get interviews 

Please do not fall into this trap. Couple of things I wanted to lay out here 

1. I will never charge anyone for any kind of feedback service or getting them a job in any of the companies we partner with. So if anyone is asking you for money for any service be rest assured it’s not me.

2. We don’t work with big tech companies, like Google, Amazon, Microsoft etc, we only work with startups (Early stage) and staffing companies that sponsor candidates. 

3. My focus is never on giving a guarantee to place cadidiates and get them a job. We only focus on guaranteeing feedback within 48 hours and getting candidates who pass our assessment test with an opportunity to interview with the company (That also depends on the company) but we have seen a lot of candidates getting interview calls. 

4. I have only one official mode of email communication and just one and it’s 

Email: utkarshbinaypratap305@gmail.com.

If you get any emails from any other email id then thats definitely not me. 

5. Finally, please don’t reply to folks on my comment section who are pretending to gurantee and give you a job thats almost a scam more often than not. 

Stay safe, be away from scams and please don’t pay anyone any money for any of the services that I offer. My services will always be free.

Scammers- Get a life bruh.

Thanks :) Please spread the word across.

Hey Guys, 

Today I woke up to the amazing news of crossing 50K followers on this platform. 

Thank you for all the love and support. This is a huge number for me and I’m extremely elated and happy 

With great numbers comes great responsibility, I’m fully aware of that quote and I intend to use this platform and my “influence” for the good of the people.

The journey and mission has always been to change the way recruting works by helping more and more job seeker’s get a job faster and provide them with detailed/quick and actionable feedback that can help them learn, grow and prepare them for the next interview or job. 

Unlike a lot of my creator friends who reach this mark, I have no predictions of what my follower count will be next year, coz those metrics don’t matter to me. 

Thanks for supporting and all the love.

Stay tuned for the Feedback of Hiring Drive 6: Junior/Associate data science role, it should start all your inboxes shortly 

#hiring #helpingeachother #h1hiring #jobsearch #celebrations.

Hey guys, 

Because of all the scams going on around my name, have finally decided to incorporate a company and all communications henceforth will be done using that official email as well. 

Anything that’s not done through that official email is a scam. And always remember I don’t charge any money for resume review or interview feedback or even conducting the hiring drive and all of our processes are absolutely free. 

Last week was very heavy dealing with this and setting up new flows, training our models and onboarding new companies to partner with for our hiring drives. 

I know that around 23% of the 6800 people that gave the PM Assessment test are still waiting for feedback and I know I’ve guaranteed feedback and feedback within 25 hours and will do so. All the remaining candidates will be getting detailed feedback by tomorrow (in the next 24 hours). 

This was an issue in the tool that we were using for running running our outreach email campaign to send out the mass feedback emails. We have shifted to another tool/company and have been assured that no further issues will be happening on these lines. 

I take full responsibility for this and candidates feedback and speed of feedback is the most important for me in this journey of making hiring and recruiting transparent and much much faster. 

Hiring Drive 6 Announcement: Also in other news announcing a new hiring drive in the next 2 hours and it’s for software engineers. 

It’s one of the best, most comprehensive and one of the most interesting evaluation assessment that you guys would have encountered so far, super excited for you guys to take it. 

Best of luck for Hiring Drive 6 and also on the PM/APM assessment, hope the best candidates get the next round and a chance to interview with the esteemed companies 🚀

Hey guys, 

Wanted to discuss some questions regarding the 6 hiring drives that have been conducted so far. And wanted to clarify all the questions that you might have 

1. In all these hiring drives we conduct preliminary assessment test for a particular domain (Be it SDE, ML, UX designer, PM etc) 

2. We generally partner with companies, companies give us a requirement in terms of which role they want to hire for and how many people they want to hire for. 

3. Once we have good amount of roles, we aim for 20+ roles, be it for software engineering or data science or any other roles we conduct the assessment test. 

Based on the company requirements and our own personal threshold criteria we shortlist students purely on their responses and assessment scores. 

4. These vetted candidates are then provided to these companies, and then it’s on the company who they are hiring and who they go ahead with and schedule interviews with. 

5. My team and I have been advised by all the startups to not disclose names or pay or any such company information unless told them by hence I refrain from disclosing those details on the post. 

6. We are working on creating better pipelines for how these vetted candidates can further be given a chance for similar roles that they are proficient and how we can work better with companies so that all these vetted candidates atleast get an opportunity to interview with these companies.

7. Most important we are focussed on reducing the time taken to hire for candidates and companies and providing feedback for candidiates as fast as possible 

(yes the PM/APM interview lot of people didn’t get feedback and it’s been a while but it’s a tool glitch and we are still learning and growing) 

8. Finally, we are working on creating a skill badge based system for all these candidates who clear any assessment test so that we can forward their profiles to all companies who are hiring candidates in tha particular domain without the need of them giving the test 

Please be patient with us, slowly but steadily we will improve and ensure there is transparency in hiring and also speed. 

Thanks :)

Hey Guys,

I think i have finally cracked Hyper personalized feedback for all at scale. For the first time after 5 hiring drives, we have cracked it.

People who had participated in the Hiring Drive 5: For Entry/Mid Level product managers would have experienced it first hand. Let me know what you guys thought of it in the comment section down below

We wanted to build a fast and reliable feedback system, that guarantees a feedback to everyone within 24 hours, apart from that we wanted to make the feedback hyper personalized, concise and descriptive for every candidate. The kind of feedback that guides candidates and helps them improve and be interview-ready. 

This is what we think, recruiting will/should be in the AGI era. If you are someone who has idea about knowledge graphs and want to work on building the logic layer of one of the most advanced AI recruiting and feedback model and at a massive scale then i would love to hear from you.

On a side note 740 of you'll who gave this assessment would have received the feedback.

Congratulations to everyone who were selected for the next round. Thanks :)
