Vidisha (Madhya Pradesh):
It’s a dream come true for 22-year-old Swapnil Jain, a computer science
graduate from IIT-Delhi. Swapnil, who hails from Vidisha in Madhya Pradesh, has
been offered a job by micro-blogging website Twitter – at a whopping package of
Rs. 80 lakh per annum.
He is moving to
California in October to start his new job.
“Twitter has offered me a
software engineer’s job during the placement in IIT-Delhi. It was my dream to
work for companies like Twitter or Facebook. I have worked very hard and my
efforts have paid off,” he said.
Swapnil says this is the
first time in the last two years that Twitter has hired someone from India. And
he is thrilled.
“I want to represent my country and hope that I’m able to make my
family and city proud,” he said.
Swapnil credits his
success to his family, especially his parents. His grandfather, Babu Lal Jain,
is a well-known lawyer in Vidisha and his father has a jewellery showroom.
“I am very happy. He made
this possible through his hard work and dedication,” said Swapnil’s father
Sanjay Jain.
