Zomato Delivery Agent's Handwritten Internship Pitch with Food Order Wins Hearts Online

In a heartwarming example of initiative and determination, a Zomato delivery agent's handwritten internship request has captured the attention of thousands online after it was shared on LinkedIn.

The story unfolded when an employee at Shopflo, a technology company, ordered food during a late-night shift. Along with their meal came a surprise: a handwritten note from the delivery partner expressing his desire for a summer internship in marketing — not sales.

The note read:

“I am a college student looking for a summer internship in marketing (NOT sales). Do contact me. 6261724837 (Only WhatsApp).”

Flipping the note over, the customer also found a humble apology for the "terrible handwriting," adding an endearing touch to the heartfelt message.

Moved by the gesture, the employee shared a photo of the note on LinkedIn with a caption that struck a chord with many:

"That note hit me. Amidst the hustle of deliveries, this person still took a shot at reaching out — handwritten, bold, and hopeful."

What stood out was the clarity of the request and the specific mention of interest in marketing roles only — showcasing not just enthusiasm, but direction.

The LinkedIn post concluded with an encouraging message aimed at professionals in the marketing industry:

"It reminded me how opportunities don't always come through formal channels — sometimes, they're scribbled on paper in the middle of a delivery run. If someone from the marketing space comes across this and sees potential in him, I truly hope this note finds the right eyes."

The post has since gone viral, resonating with users for its authenticity and reminding everyone that ambition often finds a way — even if it comes tucked inside a food delivery bag.
