CWS provided me a platform to explore and grow while making actual ground level impact. I found exceptional mentors and supportive peers who believed in our common vision and mission. The best part is that we as an org are learning, growing and getting better each day. The sky is the limit and we look forward to making much more impact while hand holding everyone towards achieving personal and professional goals.

Moderate focus on showcasing the work that is done - this is improving now with a great comms team. Hiring process should be more streamlined to ensure only the most passionate get the opportunity - the work we do is more than a job and needs a lot of passion and self motivation.

There is a lot of care taken while mentoring staff and a lot of efforts put into the growth and training. It is a transparent organisation and also if people want correct feedback for learning and growth this is the best place to be. CWS also pays better than many other NGOs in the same space and is led by a very strong leadership team which promises and delivers

A vibrant organisation, with many dedicated people working towards the cause of environment and wildlife conservation. The organisation has been a pioneer in wildlife science and continues to helm the field with scientific research and also diversified into education, community engangement.

Starting my journey as a full time (post college) has been an enriching experience, particularly in understanding the workings of the conservation space. I've been lucky to have experienced mentors who taught me a lot. Leveraging my writing and design abilities, I've honed my skills in responsible communication practices. However, the highlight has been the individuals I've encountered within the CWS team. Their support and diverse personalities have been invaluable sources of learning and friendship. Working within a compact team structure has afforded me into various facets of media and communication, for which I am thankful.

I do wish I had the opportunity to see where our work goes and to visit the field as it was something that excited me to take up the job.
