MUMBAI: Many would like to believe she’s got the best job in the world: messaging to kids.
Gurugram-based Aanchal Manchanda today announced on Linkedin that she has taken on a new job as head of brand marketing at TalentGum. Unlike what many think about it being a recruitment platform, it is actually a platform which helps children discover their hidden talents through online courses.
How cool is that?
Aanchal too found it super cool and she decided to move to it after being employed for almost six years at the blue chip company, Infosys, which she exited from as senior associate marketing manager (March 2019 to January 2025).
She spent a year at Libros Media in Christchurch, New Zealand as a Hindi language content expert preparing course materials for Hindi lessons between July 2016 and March 2018. The she had a longish stint of two years plus with LimeRoad.com as assistant manager (brand and community) between September 2013 and September 2015.
Prior to that and in between, she had fleeting stints of 10 months or less with several organisations like Lok Sabha TV, Bang PR, DreamCatcher Films, TV South Asia , Fox Broadcasting, Meizu, CCEL College of English (Christchurch) and Udacity working either as an assistant producer or a translator or as an intern or as a social media manager.
An MBA in marketing from the University of Canterbury, Aanchal has also completed her Bachelors in Mass Comm and followed it with a post graduate diploma in PR, marketing & advertising.
