RiseUpp.com Just Did What LinkedIn, Naukri & Shine Couldn’t
BENGALURU, India | July 1, 2026 — India’s most ambitious professionals are looking beyond job portals for career growth. For years, they have been told to update their LinkedIn profiles, upload resumes on job portals, and keep applying for jobs until something works.
But millions of ambitious learners are now realising a hard truth: job portals can show vacancies, but they cannot tell you what you must learn next to actually become eligible for those better opportunities.
That unanswered question—”What should I learn next to grow?”—is exactly where RiseUpp.com is creating an entirely new category in India’s career-growth ecosystem.
LinkedIn, Naukri, and Shine help professionals search for jobs. RiseUpp works one step before the job search by solving the much bigger problem: career readiness.
Across India, working professionals and fresh graduates are chasing better roles, higher salaries, and leadership opportunities. They apply for jobs again and again, but the real blocker is rarely the absence of openings. The real blocker is confusion.
Professionals do not know whether an Online MBA, MTech, MCA, DBA, professional certificate, or a specific skill-based certification is the right next step. They do not know which university to trust, whether the fee is worth it, or if they will get career support after enrolment.
RiseUpp is built to solve this confusion.
Operating directly as an official partner with over 500 reputed universities and institutions, RiseUpp helps students and working professionals transparently discover, compare, and enrol in over 12,000 online courses.
The platform covers a full spectrum of online degrees, IIT/IIM programmes, executive upskilling, and career-focused learning paths. However, it is fundamentally built around one promise: do not choose a course just because someone sold it well; choose it because it perfectly aligns with your career goal.
To make this possible, RiseUpp combines AI-powered recommendations through Navya—its proprietary AI assistant that acts as a 24/7 personal career counsellor—with expert human counselling.
Learners are guided based on their unique profile, budget, work experience, and long-term plans. They can easily compare universities, fees, eligibility, duration, 0% EMI options, and exclusive scholarships before making a high-stakes decision.
But RiseUpp’s biggest disruption begins after enrolment.
While many platforms stop at admission, RiseUpp serves as a lifetime career co-pilot. The platform has built a massive placement support ecosystem, offering direct mentoring from over 500 IIM alumni and industry experts, ATS-optimised resume building, LinkedIn profile enhancement, and rigorous interview preparation.
Backed by a network of over 1,000 hiring partners and 5,000 active job opportunities, the impact is undeniable: in the last three months alone, more than 1,000 professionals have secured salary hikes or promotions after upskilling through the ecosystem.
Built by IIT and IIM alumni, supported by Google for Startups and Microsoft for Startups, and recognised with multiple industry awards including EdTech Deployment of the Year 2025, RiseUpp is bringing trust, technology, and end-to-end career support into a single platform.
For professionals navigating these critical decisions, the company provides dedicated learner support through its 24x7x365 helpline at +91-6363079209.
“Most Indian professionals do not lack ambition. They simply lack the right guidance at the right moment,” says Hari Rastogi, Founder and CEO of RiseUpp.
“People are endlessly applying for jobs, but many first need the right degree, certificate, skill, or career path to become ready for those opportunities. Job portals help you search for opportunities. RiseUpp helps you become ready for them. That is the real shift. From course selection to executive career growth, our goal is to support learners at every step of their journey.”
