Ghar Se Door, Sapnon Ke Paas: Why Migrants Need More Than Jobs

When Raju left his small village in Chhattisgarh to work in Delhi, he wasn’t just chasing a job — he was chasing a dream. Like millions of young Indians, Raju came to the city with hope in his heart and strength in his hands.

But what he didn’t expect was the loneliness, confusion, and lack of support he’d face once he got there.

The truth is, India’s internal migrants don’t just need employment. They need a soft landing.

They need trust, belonging, and someone to help them take their first steps in a new city.

At Marketplace Company, we understand that. That’s why our vision goes beyond jobs — we provide an integrated, trust-first ecosystem for every migrant worker stepping into city life.

The Migration Dream Is Real. So Are Its Challenges.

Every year, over 100 million internal migrants move from Tier-2 and Tier-3 towns to urban centers in search of work. But what awaits them isn’t always opportunity.

More often, it’s:

What they need is not just a job — but a complete onboarding process for migrant workers that makes them feel safe, supported, and valued.

From "Job" to "Journey": The First 30 Days Matter

Your first 30 days in a new city shape your experience for years to come.

That’s why our migrant worker onboarding platform is designed to support every step of that early journey — from verified job placement to food, housing, and even emotional support via WhatsApp.

We help with:

We don't just offer jobs. We deliver the best support for migrants moving to cities.

Building Belonging: Language and Local Support

For most urban platforms, workers are just a number. But at Marketplace Company, we speak their language — literally.

Our platform is built for Hindi-speaking job seekers, with end-to-end guidance in their native language. We support them over WhatsApp and phone so they never feel confused or alone.

We also work with local agents and field representatives — Nia Saathis — who help migrants settle down with dignity and direction.

“Poora Bharosa”: The Core of Our Ecosystem

We’ve all heard the horror stories — fake agents, shady landlords, and salary scams.

That’s why we’ve built a platform based on trusted job placement services and verified vendors only.

Here’s how we ensure 100% trust:

  • No payment before offer letter

  • Transparent job descriptions and benefits

  • Verified PGs and housing

  • No middlemen or fraud

We don't just help people find work — we offer a safe migration experience in India.

A Community That Grows With You

We’re not just a job board. We’re a migrant support community — where every person matters.

Follow real success stories and life-changing journeys on our Instagram page, and stay updated on our mission and growth via LinkedIn updates.

We’re building something bigger than an app — we’re building belonging.

Be Part of the Movement

Whether you're a migrant seeking a better life or a company wanting to support them, this platform is your trusted partner.

Together, we can bring every worker closer to their dreams — “Ghar Se Door, Sapnon Ke Paas.”
