Top media houses like Zee Media, CNBC, Thomson Reuters, Times Now, Sakal, Lokmat, and DNA were the top recruiters.

Of course, they were paid hire as they carry much other acumen too with them. Companies like Essel Group, Endeamol, Star Network and others under whom we learned the art of journalism were the ones who came to hire us.
