About Unstop

Unstop, formerly known as Dare2Compete, is an Indian career-discovery and student-engagement platform headquartered in New Delhi. The platform connects students and early-career professionals with competitions, hackathons, case challenges, scholarships, internships, jobs, mentorship sessions, and learning content from Indian and global companies. Unstop was founded in 2017 by Ankit Aggarwal and rebranded from Dare2Compete to Unstop in 2022 to reflect its broader career-discovery scope beyond competitions. It has raised venture capital from investors including Mirae Asset Venture Investments and Bharti Airtel founder Sunil Bharti Mittal's family office, and counts large enterprises, top business schools, and engineering institutions among its partners. The platform is widely used by Indian companies for campus engagement, employer branding, hiring assessments, and pre-placement competitions. Engineering, product, design, content, and operations teams are concentrated at Unstop's New Delhi headquarters. Indian fresher hiring at Unstop typically targets associate-software-engineer, full-stack-engineer, mobile-engineer, product-analyst, content, partnerships, and operations roles, with internships used as a common entry route. The company itself is also a destination for graduates interested in working at the intersection of HR-tech, edtech, and consumer career platforms in India.
