Build a career in your dream software startup
A community-led learning platform that prepares you for a rewarding career in the fast-growing startup ecosystem.
Why we created NextStop?
The job world is changing. New sectors are cropping up with
unique requirements while the jobs in the existing sectors are
undergoing a sea change. In fact, both technical and
non-technical jobs of the near and far future will not be the
same and the boundaries between these ‘distinct’ jobs will
soon start blurring.
But, the sad truth is that
current aspirants are not equipped to handle the ever-evolving
requirements of these jobs. If not being ‘job ready’ is every
aspirant’s roadblock, finding the right talent is every
brand’s most significant need. It is an arduous task to find
the right candidates for a plethora of roles. This talent
crunch is real.
NextStop aims to be the platform
that bridges this need.
Our first target is
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) because we live and breathe that
world. We will be providing the best real-world courses
designed by industry experts for candidates and the best
candidates for brands.
