Working with LinqTV #MyStory by Viraj Mehta

Viraj is the Chief Marketing Officer of LinqTV. He is extremely hardworking, passionate about his job and his ability to solve any problem with a calm and composed demeanor makes him apt for his role. His helpful attitude makes him quite popular amongst the teams. He joined LinqTV way back in 2014 and again in 2021 and it has been a memorable and pleasant journey with him. Recently we met him and asked about his experience so far with LINQTV.  When we were having a virtual chitchat, a lot of memories popped up.

I first heard about LinqTV during my research about the online streaming market in India and which companies are bold enough to enter the same way back in 2014! This made me not just interested in LinqTV, but also follow LinqTV, which led me to apply for the role of Head of Marketing with them when the opportunity came up.

I joined LinqTV in 2014 for a lot of reasons –

As you can see, the above 4 key points, it was quite a challenge to not say Yes to LinqTV!

What made you come back to LINQTV?

I rejoined LinqTV in 2021, even after I had exited LinqTV, I had always kept in touch with LinqTV, not just my own marketing team, but other team members, the founder as well as the product and the company as well, and I had observed it grow from a single-product company to a multi-product SaaS organization of over 250+ employees!

LinqTV’s growth not only reflected in its product lead growth but it also in the growth of its own Culture which by now, was thriving and had had all indications of something other HRs and founders can aspire to copy!

Overall I was drawn back into LinqTV due to not only its product growth but also overall professional satisfaction from work accomplishment, work-culture and work-life balance the company offered.

What are the best things you enjoy being here?

Tell us something about your team.

Any manager’s requirement is to have a team that not only understands their daily tasks, work and goals, but also understands the product and company and gels into the work environment. In remote work and culture where there are no tracking and monitoring tools being used as a policy it becomes very tempting for someone to abuse some of the freedom provide, however a mature team understands this difference and uses this to their advantage to channel into not just being productive but also growing and nurturing their own skills and talent which helps them as well as the company indirectly.

Any message for people who want to join LINQTV?

I won’t answer this with a statement like “LinqTV is the best place to work” as that will not be appropriate. I would rather ask you, what do you look for when you are looking for a new job and change of company? What made you decide to move on from your current / last company? And how does LinqTV help you tick off the boxes you are looking for?

Beyond finding a job that matches your work aspirations, the most important aspect of switching to a new organization is its work culture and balance it offers.
