Journey to Job: Real Career Stories - Jumping Industries Was the Whole Strategy

Chetan Sharma is a Growth & Digital Marketing Leader with more than 18 years of experience spanning fintech, travel, e-commerce, and edtech. In this episode, hosts Ankit and Himanshu unpack the counterintuitive career philosophy that has driven every move Chetan has made: staying loyal to a craft rather than an industry. Chetan explains how he spotted digital marketing as an emerging field with no entry barrier, why he has never once switched to a competitor within the same industry, and how COVID forced his most dramatic pivot — only to reveal just how far he had quietly grown at ClearTrip, from managing one hotels category to heading marketing across India and the Middle East. He also shares his current hiring lens: AI fluency is no longer a bonus — it is the baseline, and the window to develop it is closing fast.
