Crawzy Internship incident I can bet you can't go unamazed.
Hear me - a full read would be worth it icl.
So i just saw a post on linkedin about hiring IB/VC interns, it was a VC startup looking to invest in other startups
I sent my resume on his email(The Founder's) and he replied with a calendly link asking me to choose an appropriate time for an intro call at google meet.
Did the same. Was waiting for him to join but he didnt and i was preparing for this call for the whole day. Emailed him the same then followed up too and then he sent me his phone number over mail and asked me to text me there. I did it, and he replied after 4 days mentioning about the rescheduled call. i waited for that but he didnt come as the last time
I replied with slight frustration but wrote that i am still eager for this internship.
he replied after 6-7 days again for a call and didnt come.
but this time he added me to the group directly welcoming me to the team. Like bro really?
I thought its okay, a startup can be this informal. He asked me to talk to 2-3 people in the group. I talked to one of them and got to know its all about finding other co investors and nowhere related to IB. I thought lets stay for atleast a week. then on the group he shared a post about "Mouni Roy's" divorce (a Bollywood actress) and said thats a great opportunity we should contact her and send her matches to replace her ex husband. I was already laughing so hard on where have i ended up😭😭🙏.
Then he said these guy's would be working on project Mouni😭🙏
you remember the guy I talked to? yea that one
then the founder wrote "Team please pray for (name of that guy). He is leaving the firm and heading to mumbai to ask for Mouni's hand, we shall miss him" 😭
and then he started sending random GIFs from titanic movie
"I am flying Jack", " i'll never let you go", "I love you jack" and then Mouni's "Nagin gifs"
I was like tf is going on😭😭
then i DMed that guy again asking about did you leave bro?
he said the founder removed him
he DMed the founder telling about he connected with a very good co investor and asked about when should we connect on a call
You can't expect what would have happened 😭
That founder started sending Him horror GIF's saying "meet me in hell" etc as well as
"Daddy issues" gifs😭😭😭 brooooo tf
I would have got scared if it was me and not him
also when he added me to the group he mentioned "guys meet (my name), and then a girl's name from their team and said "Shes from singapore" i thought he's talking about that girl but that guy who got removed told me that in DM the founder mentioned "(my Name) and said contact her she's from singapore"😭😭🙏
May god bless that founder's soul and cure his mental illness
