Sales hiring startup Scooter raises Rs 1.5 Cr pre-seed round

Pune based sales hiring startup Scooter has raised Rs 1.5 crore in a pre-seed round led by Aviral Bhatnagar’s AJVC. 

The proceeds will be used for its product and simplify the sales hiring process for candidates and hiring managers.

Founded in 2024 by Kartik Mandrekar and Saumya Seth, Scooter helps startups hire sales professionals by assessing candidates on real sales scenarios instead of relying primarily on CVs. 

Mandrekar has previously led sales teams at Gartner, Shoptimize and Graas, while Seth is a behavioural scientist with a master’s degree from the University of Pennsylvania.

The platform sources verified sales professionals, assesses them through real sales scenarios and provides hiring managers with a shortlist of three to five candidates. Managers can review short video clips from assessments before viewing a candidate’s CV. One customer has made a sales hire through Scooter in six days.

Scooter currently works with more than 50 companies and has added 14 customers in recent months. 

The investment is AJVC’s first in a Pune based startup. AJVC is a pre-seed fund led by Aviral Bhatnagar. Scooter is focused on helping startups and sales teams reduce the time involved in finding and evaluating sales candidates.
