An advice given to many a youngster these days is to reduce his/her time spent on various social media platforms and instead use the time to do something more useful.
But sometimes, the powerful side to social media can come out on display as was seen recently when a man got a job at Bengaluru startup Dukaan after replying to a query by one of the co-founders Subhash Choudhary.
In an "Ask my Anything" session conducted by Chaudhary on X (formerly Twitter) on September 23, a user told him that he wished to join the frontend team at Dukaan and was willing to work for free for them.
Chaudhary then gave him and other users a challenge and shared his email address to send the response.
Take this figma, and code it in HTML with 100% pixel perfection.If you think you have matched it, deploy it somewhere and email the link to subhash@mydukaan.io
You will get an interview, guaranteed.https://t.co/kmpKoCD331
