Amrita Singh, an active user of the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), stumbled upon a Hindi job advertisement displayed outside an Indian momos shop.

In the hectic landscape of post-college job searches, securing a dream job and position often seems to be a daunting challenge for youngsters these days. Fresh graduates looking for work in this competitive job market are frequently confronted with the stark reality of entry-level salaries. Many of these heat-breaking shocks prompt students to seek opportunities that meet their financial needs, which may differ from what they pursued in their studies.

Amidst this formidable backdrop, a viral post depicting a momo seller's unbelievable and somewhat unconventional job offer has left netizens wondering if earning a degree and applying for jobs at major companies is a viable career path. The post, which has gone viral, drew significant attention from job seekers.
