The Journey

To briefly introduce you to our venture and vision — We believe in facilitating the adoption of advanced gadgets by a wider section of society and also handling of these used devices in an environmentally friendly manner. We aspire to define a new space of online commerce i.e. ReCommerce (Reverse Commerce). We enable users to part with their used gadgets in a socially and environmentally responsible manner by providing them a convenient and reliable service which also offers value. Our users can value and sell their used gadgets instantly and directly to us. These devices are then resold through various channels. We also facilitate the monetization of the same and thereafter donate the proceeds to charitable causes. This is a multi-billion dollar industry, primarily unorganised, which we are organizing.

The Crew

Budli.in, founded in 2013 and have been steadily defining the ReCommerce space in India. We have grown to a small but strong team, with a rich collective experience in various business domains and functions. We have been fortunate to have been recognised for our work across various media channels like BBC World, Fortune Magazine, Mint, etc. (featured on our home page). Having started our operations in Kolkata, we have now set up our operations base in Bangalore. We have also won numerous awards such as Startup of the Year & Emerging Entrepreneur of the Year.

To help us scale and build the game-changing platform comprising of myriad technology and process integrations, we need team-members with some very exceptional talent such as great UI Designers, UI Developers, Web Developers (PHP), Sales Controller, Digital Marketing and Customer Service personnel.

Cockpit Straight-talk

For those who have the depth and insight shall realise that this is not something for the short-term and nor for the weak-kneed but a journey that shall drive the core of an online venture and each team member shall reap the long-term benefits which shall go way beyond pay-cheques. To dig into the crude details about who qualifies and how one can become a team member, read on.

On a cautionary note — Only the best shall make the grade and freshers may apply only if they have the wherewithal to rapidly learn and compete with the best.

The Interview Process

• Let's talk — We discuss and help understand if we are a good match. This could prove very crucial as a candid discussion at an early stage may just set the ball rolling in the right direction or help end the process long before a lot of time is wasted on either side. Gather whatever information you can about us and be prepared with whatever queries you may have before the call.
• Walk the talk — Don't just tell us what you are good at, show us by doing it. If you are a developer, show us your code. If you are a designer, you may have to design a mock up. If you are a system admin, you may have to put together a disaster management plan. Be it any post, we will have something for you to deliver from within the confines of your home.
• The rendezvous — We bring you in and throw a series of assignments at you that shall challenge your neurons. You may meet various people and see the day's workings that define life at Budli.in. We help you determine if this is the right place for you to nurture yourself and your workplace. You may be surprised to see things that you hardly expected.
• Break the suspense — The process is lengthy and could be taxing even though we try to make it as smooth as possible. We need to be doubly sure before we commit or we make you do so. Hence we think that it is worth the wait while we decide and get back to you. If you think otherwise, you must move on.
