Jagranjosh.com completes a decade dedicated to empowering youth, job aspirants and students

The Pedigree

The brand Jagranjosh finds its roots in two words i.e. Jagran – which is eponymous of one of India’s oldest, largest and most trusted news publishing houses – Dainik Jagran; coupled with Josh – which represents, passionate youth of this country. Bringing both of these aspects together, what emerged was Jagranjosh.com – a trusted platform that truly understands the needs of the youth, especially the students and offers pragmatic solutions for them. 

The Journey

What was conceptualized as a platform dedicated to catering to the new-age needs of youth, took the shape of a digital portal in 2010! At its nascent stage, Jagranjosh.com catered to the aspirants preparing for different competitive exams under various levels; be it government jobs such as IAS /UPSC and Banking sector jobs to professional entrance exams such as MBA and JEE.

Currently, Jagranjosh.com provides the most authentic updates and information on educational news, immersive and informative write-ups, featured articles from industry experts, interviews of subject experts and thought leaders, which help the students make right career decisions. The trusted target audience of JagranJosh includes school and college students, government job aspirants and professional exam test-takers in areas such as management, medicine and engineering.

It also provides a platform for hosting India’s top motivational speakers like Shiv Khera, top career counsellors like Pervin Malhotra, faculty of top management and engineering schools like IIMs and IITs, along with representatives from global bodies like the United Nations Organisation.  

JagranJosh has kept pace with the times and has created significant presence in the social media space with a large audience on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube along with dedicated Apps for Current Affairs and Govt Jobs.
