Real careers. Real stories. Real conversations.Curated sessions with students across India

Most students pick a career from a syllabus, a relative's advice or a job title they've heard of. Very few ever get to ask someone who has actually done the job.

You can be that person. One session on how your field really works, the skills it takes and the path that got you there can change how a student thinks about their future.

The kind of access that was once reserved for boardrooms, now walking into classrooms.

What it looks like

Real-world knowledge, straight from the source

You share what you know: how the work is actually done, the tools and frameworks you use, the problems your industry is solving, and the lessons from your own career. Then the floor opens for students' questions. Every session is matched to the students' interests, and may be held on campus or online, depending on what's possible.

  3. We match you with students

    We find a school or college whose students' interests fit your experience.

    We coordinate with you and the institution to find a date that suits both sides.

    Walk students through how your work is really done, what you've learned along the way, and answer the questions they rarely get to ask.

Questions

Before you say yes

How much time does it take?

As much as you want to give. There's no minimum commitment. You pick the sessions that fit your calendar.

What would I talk about?

Your area of expertise. That can be practical and technical: how things are done in your industry, the tools and frameworks you use, case studies and the problems your field is working on. You can also share your career path and the lessons you've learned. Topics are aligned with what the students are interested in, and we'll brief you on the audience beforehand.

What happens after I reply on WhatsApp?

Someone from the KNUTS team will get back to you with next steps, or set up a quick call if you'd like to know more first.
