A Delhi-based entrepreneur, Sivesh Kumar, co-founder and COO of Coffea India, has gained widespread attention for creating a LinkedIn profile for his two-year-old son, Tiger Chauhan. Earlier this week, Kumar set up the profile and has been regularly posting updates.
Tiger Chauhan’s LinkedIn bio states, “I am just a kid, trying to find my place in this world. My father’s friend always says that ‘network is Net worth’. So I am here to network which will help me in my career.”
In his first post on August 26, the young boy shared that he is “here to network” in hopes of securing a spot in a prestigious pre-school. “I turned two today and already started to feel the pressure of this world. With all the talks at home to get me into school. Hmm, the pressure is real and me ‘nanhi si jaan’,” the post reads.
The post continues, “My father Sivesh Kumar’s friend Praveen Kumar Rajbhar always says that ‘Network is Networth’, so I am here to network which will help me (to start with) get into a good pre-school. And further will take one step at a time. I am trying to stay away from social media (as nobody gives me the phone at home), but still for my career will try to log in once a week. Looking for all the help.”
Many LinkedIn users commented on the post, welcoming Tiger to the “real world” and noting, “At just two, you’re already ahead of the game—most of us only realized the importance of networking after several cups of chai and a few gray hairs.” Others shared their best wishes and birthday greetings, with one user saying, “Happy birthday Tiger. I hope you sail through all the struggles of preschool really well! All the very best for the journey ahead. You can do it, master.”
Sivesh Kumar’s second post featured Tiger dressed as Lord Krishna for Janmashtami celebrations.
