Project Steps

  • The objective of this Internship is to help Shiksha become the no. 1 destination for college reviews where all future generations of college students can find the right colleges for themselves. People working on this Internship will be required to do the following:
  • Use your immediate network of friends, classmates, batchmates, siblings, cousins, etc., who fulfill a certain criteria (which you will learn when your internship starts). Make a List of all these people and determine how you are going to get in touch with them - via Phone Call/ WhatsApp/ Facebook/Face-to-Face Meeting or Any Other Media suited to your relationship with the person or group of people.
  • Next, Build a network of Associates: You can also select around 10 - 20 of your friends/ classmates/ club members and get them to not only provide their own reviews, but also get 10 - 12 reviews each from other people in their extended network. In this case, ensure the following:
  • Train your friends well on the eligibility criteria, common reasons for rejections and how to avoid them, how to approach the various people, and finally the importance of maintaining the rejection rate below 25%. Also, your friends who get at least 10 reviews from their own network, will be given a Live Project Completion Certificate containing the logo of Shiksha.com & OysterConnect.com. The same will be signed by a Senior Management Personnel of OysterConnect.com.
  • Target Student Coordinators of various clubs and activity cells across college campus and get them on-board as they generally have a vast pool of student data. You can offer A Live Project Certificate to the Student Coordinator in return for a certain number of reviews. Alternately, you can collect the student data (Name, contact details, email id, etc) and contact them yourself.
  • Finally, Use your alumni status at your previous college to get in touch with the Alumni Student Team and convince them to get the senior batches of students to post their reviews on Shiksha (using your link). You can also directly contact other alumni whom you personally know (your ex-classmates/ batchmates) via personal contacts or online groups & associations and get them to put up their reviews on Shiksha using your link.
