When was the last time you knew of a great opportunity – only too late? Based on an idea presented at London Business School, Let Me Know is a effort to make students aware of opportunities. Breaking the information barrier, finally.
In November 2007, a pilot of Let Me Know was launched at http://letmeknow.wordpress.com.
In a short span of time, over 200 opportunities have been shared – including tech competitions, social entrepreneurship fellowships, business plan competitions, research projects, internships, conferences, scholarships and volunteer opportunities. The blog has received close to 90,000 hits and highly encouraging feedback from the youth across the world.
We now seek a talented team of web designers, with relevant past experience, to create a portal that will help Let Me Know project sustain and better serve the youth community in India and the rest of the world.
If you would like to be involved in this assignment, write to letmeknowblog@gmail.com with your resume and a note on why you would like to contribute.
Thanks!
