Introduction
Ravinder Kumar paced hastily along the new campus CR corridor. He was waiting for a call to
discuss the roadmap of his venture cvpoint.in. While he had originally planned for it to be a portal
for verification of CV points. His summer maverick had yielded this idea and had won him a
sponsorship for $ 5000. The plan was to target a few colleges to start by targeting students from a few
colleges and getting them on board
Scope
Ravinder had done considerable ground work during his internship. He met people from KPMG
forensics unit who were doing over 50,000 background verifications per month. He also met senior VP
from AuthBridge, which was another leading verification provider. He had spent considerable time
with Quetzal, a venture by an IIMA alum

Conclusion
The work for the website was underway. Ravinder had to be ready with the list of colleges and a mock
pitch as soon as possible. He needed to identify at least three colleges that would be best suited this
concept. The pitch would have two parts: the first would be basic research to make a cold call that
would include information regarding current placement and CV verification system, potential and
previous 3 year placement record. He conceded that official numbers might not be available for all
colleges and in such cases data could be collected from friends and acquaintances. The second would be
the actual pitch that would be delivered to a target audience of students.
