InterviewBit, an edtech start-up, said it has raised $20 million in a Series-A funding round, led by Sequoia India and Tiger Global, and with participation from other investors. The firm provides Scaler Academy, an advanced online computer science programme for college graduates and young software engineers.
The firm will use the funds to scale up the enrollment of students and launch in new markets. It would also invest in the curriculum and live teaching product to enhance the student-teacher experience.
“A lot of young engineers don’t always have access and exposure to the relevant technical skills or recruitment processes of global companies.
