Welcome to Chitti 💌
Curated jobs + insider insights + real stories = your impact career, simplified.
Hi there 👋
Welcome to Chitti - Ground Zero’s weekly newsletter bringing you career insights, curated opportunities, and the real stories from India’s social impact ecosystem.
We started Ground Zero in 2021 with a simple campaign: #HiringInSocialSector. What began as weekly job posts quickly revealed something deeper - there was a massive gap between talented people eager to create change and the organizations desperately needing them.
Today, we’re 70,000+ candidates strong, partnering with 130+ nonprofits across India and South Asia. And Chitti? It’s how we bring this entire ecosystem closer to you.
Welcome to the community. 🌱
Why Chitti Exists 🚀
The social sector is evolving faster than ever. Nonprofits are scaling. Foundations are innovating. Impact is multiplying. Yet, finding your place in this ecosystem still feels like navigating in the dark.
Job boards don’t tell you what hiring managers actually look for. LinkedIn doesn’t show you which organizations are building strong cultures. And nobody’s sharing the real stories of people who’ve made bold career moves into impact work.
That’s what Chitti does.
Every week, we bring you what we see, what we learn, and what we know will make your career journey easier. Because at Ground Zero, we don’t just fill roles- we build relationships between people who want to make a difference and organizations that need them most.
