SP Jain alumnus returns to campus to hire MBA talent

Six graduates were hired by TruKKer founder Gaurav Biswas in an effort to give back to alma mater.

Gaurav Biswas, a SP Jain alumnus (class of 2010) and Founder and CEO of TruKKer, has made offers to outgoing MBA students from SP Jain’s class of 2021. Six students were hired for roles such as product owner, product manager, analysts, and other development roles and are expected to be stationed in Bangalore, India. These students will go through a rigorous training programme and have the opportunity to gain experience across TruKKer markets.

“I have always wanted to give back to my alma mater and hiring my juniors seemed the best way to do it. I decided to collaborate with SP Jain Global to organise an on-campus recruitment drive as a part of a larger recruitment plan undertaken by TruKKer that focuses on expanding the company’s intellectual capital and diversifying its workforce,” said Biswas.

TruKKer is the largest digital freight network in the Middle East and North African markets. It ventured into the Indian market in 2021, and the TruKKer Engineering Centre in Bangalore has opened up opportunities for new talent.

“Seeing alumni return to school and give back in this way is immensely gratifying. students undertake projects with top companies, interact with business leaders and thinkers, go on cultural tours and develop important global skills. These skills have led to better jobs, salaries, and better graduate outcomes,” said Balakrishna Grandhi, Dean of the school’s Global MBA programme.
