Co-founder of Jobsurance here.
After seeing so many layoffs, we are finally launching Jobsurance.
Happy to answer any questions here.
Hi Ankit, I'm interested in this space. Are you guys hiring for any roles?
Can you share your profile
Hi Evictus, Thank you for asking all these questions. If you go through our FAQ page on the website. You will get most of your answers.
Placements - We are partnering with leading placements recruiters to help you get back to job market asap. You will be assigned a concierge to help you assist with finding job.
Once you lose your job, you will raise a request to avail the benefits to us. We would verify your termination through company's officials and you will have to furnish your last 3 month salary slips, relieving letter and other similar documents. after our successful verification you shall receive your monthly salary from us for a period of 3 months (subjected to you remaining unemployed for max 3 months). This shall be paid on a monthly basis. The placement point is already covered in point 1.
Proof of employment shall be obtained as explained in above points, at the time of purchase we are seeking declaration from you on the details furnished (only companies available in our database are eligible for this)
Full-time permanent employees working in India, 6 months continuous employment at the time of claim, 90 days waiting period after purchase. Most of the scenarios are covered in case you lose your job excluding instances where termination is influenced by employee (ex. fraud, misconduct, harassment, performance issues).
1)A lot of companies (like Amazon) are putting employees under PIP and then terminating them.. forced PIP to cover their behinds.. how are such things viewed from your perspective 2) please make more nuances easily findable and readable before the payment page
One suggestion. There might be people like me who aren't interested in this but would like to see the quote/someone who doesn't want to add their phone number before getting the quote because they might get pestered with calls from other unwanted places. So maybe remove the phone number and let people see the estimated quote according to their salary
Hi LegalTimer, trust me the last thing we want is to spam you. Most of our subscribers are coming via organic mode. The reason we are doing this because we are deeply connected to this problem and wanted to solve it. I have seen mass layoffs in my past organisation which has impacted people financially.
As someone else has also said. Too much friction in checking the estimate. Probably you should change that. Good luck
A lot of friction to get the initial premium quote, I should not have to provide my PAN for KYC just to get a rough estimate.
It would be better if I could give you things like current CTC and yoe and get an estimate based on the industry.
I can understand your point, however your data is completely safe.
Since this is a financial product, PAN card verification is one of the requirement to help you with the relevant quote.
Do you classify yourself as an insurance provider? Asking because insurance payouts are not taxable... Is the money that you provide post job loss taxable?
Thanks sir. How can we buy this.
Please go to our website Jobsurance.in and check out the quotes. The plan is as per your monthly salary.
The website is quite straightforward. Wanted to check with you - can I buy this as I am already laid off.
Good luck!
Thank you randomjocke
How do you guys make money?
Through subscriptions of our curated plan (which depends on monthly salary of customers)
This is absolutely amazing!!!!!! I wonder why govt doesn't have something similar for security, anyway I can't find my company name in the list. How are you sourcing it? Maybe use the MCA data base?
We have identified more than 10 lacs entities basis their age and conduct criteria. Your company may not be present due to these. We can get it checked though if you can text your company name on the above phone number.
Can you send me your email ID? I'll send the company name.
Ankit - it is good to see that as a founder you have come out and answering people’s question. More founders should do it.
Looks interesting. All the best!
Thanks Random_product_guy

I work in product for a series A funded startup that just laid off 40% folks in my team.
Work environment has become tremendously stressful with top management continuously threatening about every small thing.
Although getting job ins...
Anybody here checked out Jobsurance? I am seeing a lot of LinkedIn influencers promoting it.(I get skeptical if influencers promote a product). It looks good on papers. Just wanted to know if anyone bought it and what are the costs?
