Social Media & Creator Marketing

Rapido’s interview process typically starts with a brief HR screening to verify eligibility, followed by a practical assignment where candidates present a trend‑based content brief. The next round is a deep‑dive with the marketing manager focusing on past projects, creative thinking, and data‑analysis skills. A final HR round assesses cultural fit and discusses compensation. Candidates should showcase a strong portfolio, be ready to discuss metrics, and demonstrate a pulse on internet culture.

Rapido promotes a high‑energy, merit‑based culture where ideas are judged on impact rather than hierarchy. Employees enjoy flexible working hours, frequent learning sessions, and clear growth tracks, while the fast‑paced environment encourages rapid skill acquisition and ownership.

Any graduate (B.Tech, B.Sc, B.Com, BA, MBA) with a minimum of 60% aggregate. Preferred streams: Marketing, Communications, Media Studies, Business Administration, or related fields. Open to candidates from the 2023‑2026 batches. Maximum of 2 backlogs allowed at the time of joining. Internships, personal projects, or a demonstrable portfolio of social media content are considered equivalent to work experience.
