Overview

Edyst is a Y Combinator-funded company (W19) working in the online learning & employability space. We’re looking to collaborate with people who want to significantly change the current learning and employability system in India.

In a span of 2 years, we have hit some pretty impressive figures that some of the most established names haven’t:

- Our course completion rates are more than 80% (8x the industry average)

- Students spend an average of 95 minutes daily on the platform (5x the industry average)

- 50% placement ratio (2x the industry average)

We need more mavericks for this journey: people who love challenges & puzzles; people who love to learn & grow; people who want to significantly change the current learning and employability system.
