Good Decisions Take Time, But Great Decisions Happen Instantly

Meet Shah meets InVideo, and then there’s been no looking back.

How did you come across InVideo?

Thanks to my engineering batchmates, Aditya and Ajitesh, who happened to join InVideo before I did. Ajitesh gave me a reference here and I joined soon after!

What was your interview experience like?

I had my interview precisely two years ago, Sept ’18. I had just graduated from college, looking for exciting opportunities. I had an interview scheduled with Quantiphi Analytics which actually went pretty well. Believe it or not, the very same evening I got a call from my friend asking if I’d like to work at InVideo. I came in for an interview the next day and this went pretty well too! It ended with Sanket asking me to join right away. I asked him to give me a couple of days since I was waiting for the final call from Quantiphi. However, Sanket gave me one hour to decide, and give an answer before exiting the office.

Now Quantiphi was a corporate company, good pay, decent work and InVideo was a startup I hadn’t heard about until other evening. But I decided to go with my gut, and what felt right. This has been the best decision of my life, a wonderful journey of 2 years now.

Why InVideo?

Startup environment, friendly culture and a great learning curve: things I knew would help me as a fresher. Also, bonus is that I get to work with two of my engineering batchmates who were already in the company (they’re still in the company).

Finally, what’s one moment/incident that stands out in your time at InVideo?

There was a Diwali party in 2018 where me, Harsh and Dhaval (ex-employee) got super wasted and had to crash into a hotel, which I’ll never forget! XD
