iQOO Gets its First Chief Gaming Officer
Shwetank Pandey, the company's first Chief Gaming Officer (CGO), has been appointed after a three-month nationwide search. Pandey, a 23-year-old from Kanpur, was the final applicant among over 60,000 to become one of India's youngest chief gaming officers with iQOO. He was appointed following an exciting selection process that included gameplay, gaming knowledge, and personality and communication skills.
"I feel on top of the world right now. When I initially filled out the form, I was reluctant and hoped to be among the finalists. Little did I know that it would lead me this far and eventually result in becoming iQOO’s first-ever CGO," Pandey said in a statement. He will now be working closely with the leadership team at iQOO and will be assisting in sharing gaming insights to build a complete smartphone package for gamers.
Along with this, he will have the opportunity to collaborate with top gamers from across the country, all while earning Rs 10 lakh, according to the company. "The DNA of iQOO is to bring in 'I Quest On and On' and Shwetank was never short of his peak performance across all rounds of the hunt." "With his addition, we intend to bring a more dynamic and fresh perspective to our products and initiatives for the country's younger gaming enthusiasts," said Nipun Marya, CEO of iQOO, in a statement.
