Meet Shruti, our HR colleague whose career journey is unusual. After her graduation, Shruti joined the Lokmanya Co-operative Society, Belgaum, as a front office staff member. In 2019, she moved over to Bangalore to join GrayMatter as a front office executive, a role which helped her understand how organizations function, strengthened her communication, and taught her multitasking, all valuable skills that enabled her smooth transition in 2021 to Human Resources (HR) function, a job profile she adores. Shruti has completed five-plus years with us.
