Traditionally, for many of the working class population,retirement meant permanent break from work. But, with changing times, people are preferring to semi-retire, working few hours or taking up a different job before retiring permanently. Rather than ajob, most people are often looking foran opportunity, be it part time work,advisory, consulting or jobs that would not just keep them engaged but would also give them the opportunity to work while staying active at the same time.Set up in 2016, NotRetired.in is a unique platform which was built with the vision to bridge the gap between the recruiters and the retired and the soon to-be retired professionals.

Headquartered in Hyderabad, NotRetired.in is the brainchild of PratapKunda, a successful Bangalore-based business man who came across this idea when he was looking for a retired person for one of his projects. Though it was an instant eureka moment where some one sees a problem and solution right in front, Pratap was still patient enough to take his time and know the nuances before jumping in. During this period,

Kamalesh Nuthi, an Entrepreneur and a Civil Engineering graduate from IIT Madras joined the force and together the duo came up with – NotRetired.in. “Our initial survey with a sample size of 400 retired people gave us a good heads up of the challenge that we were about to face.Majority of the retired people eitherrely on friends or on newspapers to find job vacancies. Few of them also check available job portals but mostly end up getting lost in the ocean of jobs.So we created NotRetired.in, a jobportal which targeted specifically at the retired and experienced people. Most retirees don’t think that there could be a dedicated job portal for them. This message of our dedicated job portal for the retired should reach more and more people, and I’m sure, once they notice this, they will find us,” Pratap Kunda,Founder, NotRetired.in.
