Ambassadors

Run FirstHack 2026 at your college

One student per college. You bring your campus, we give you something real to put on your CV — and it is not an unpaid marketing job dressed up as an opportunity.

What you actually do

  • Share the event in your college groups and with your batch
  • Answer basic questions from students at your college — we give you the material
  • Help interested students form teams
  • Put up a poster or two if your college allows it

Realistically this is 2–4 hours of work total, spread across a few weeks. We are not going to pretend otherwise.

What you get

  • Free registration for yourself — you participate at no cost
  • A cash incentive per paid registration from your college, paid after the event. The exact rate is in the ambassador agreement we send you.
  • A signed certificate of appointment naming you as campus ambassador, with a verification code
  • A recommendation letter from the organising team if you bring 25 or more registrations
  • Direct line to the organisers — a private channel, not a support queue

What we are looking for

Not a large following. Genuinely — a first-year who is active in their class group outperforms someone with ten thousand Instagram followers, because they can answer "is this legit?" personally.

  • Currently enrolled at a college in India
  • Reachable — you reply to messages within a day or so
  • Willing to say honestly what the event is, including that it is paid and that it is our first edition

Things we will not ask you to do

Being direct here because a lot of "campus ambassador" programmes are quietly exploitative:

  • We will not ask you to spam groups you are not part of
  • We will not ask you to overstate what the event offers, or to promise placements, internships or guaranteed outcomes
  • We will not set a minimum quota you must hit to keep your free registration
  • We will not ask you to pay anything, ever, for any reason

If anyone claiming to represent us asks you for money, that is not us — report it to support@firsthack.in.

How to apply

Email support@firsthack.in with the subject “Ambassador — [your college name]” and include:

  • Your name, year and college
  • Your phone or WhatsApp number
  • Two lines on how you would reach students at your college

We reply to every application within 3 working days. One ambassador is appointed per college, on a first-come basis.
