From Interns and students
Working at Fooniferse has been a phenomenal experience! I was on a quest to find a chilled out place to work, it was at this juncture that I came across Fooniferse. This fledgling company had more to offer my to thirst for knowledge, aspiration to learn new things and explore different mediums ranging - from conceptualization, research, writing to technology (especially in the art field). The designation given to me was very attractive, unique ,original and exciting. My designation being that of Dream Catcher demanded freedom of exploration and experimentation. The trust and respect placed on my work helped me to come up with innovate ideas and approaches. I was given space to explore and experiment with new concepts and strategies for the organization's marketing and sales process. I learnt to apply business process to a dynamic field such as the arts. There was a steep increase in my learning curve. I as an individual grew notches up along with the organization. My perception and approach to work changed. I learnt to strike a balance between originality, quality and synergy of output in a fulfilling environment. Fooniferse is a wonderful platform for thinkers … especially for people who are looking at something off tangent and different in work; A beautiful journey that I can always continue from anywhere in the world at anytime as I desire. This has been my escapade with Fooniferse. - Shradha Ramesh
I am very blessed to get a mentor like Srivi ma’am. She has influenced and guided, bringing out the best in me. I am very lucky to get to know her as a person. Through this experience I have learned a lot and it has shifted my perspective on how to go forth in life. - Sreelekha Sureshkumar
