Application Review
Hi I would like for someone to glance at or review & provide feedback for my technation application. One important thing I would like to know is if I should take the PROMISE route or TALENT route. Personally, it feels very fake if I call myself a leading industry guy but I believe that I am definitely promising. However, someone told me that I should go for TALENT as I have 6 years experience and that I should try and prove that I am a talent
TLDR LOR:
- CEO of gain insights (product based company located in Palo Alto, India, Singapore)
- CEO of white mastery (product based company located in India)
- Vice President of Drivestream (service based company located in USA but Drivestream was an enterprise client to a product I built at gain insights)

Worked as engineering head for a product named GINIE - B2B product (its an iOS Android Enterprise app) at Gain Insights (HQ at Palo Alto & branches in Bangalore, Singapore).
