Former HCL Java developer, Srinivas Rapolu, found working as a Rapido bike taxi driver in Bengaluru after being laid off.
Twitter user @LoveneeshDhir discovered Srinivas and decided to help him by posting his story and CV on Twitter.
In response, Dhir posted another tweet to clarify, stating, “This is not a tweet gimmic,” and shared the driver's CV along with a screenshot of their conversation.
The tweet gained attention and evoked mixed reactions, with some questioning Dhir's motives.
Rapolu's transition reflects the common occurrence of layoffs in Bengaluru's IT sector, leading individuals to seek alternative employment opportunities.
