Naukri has launched Frankly Speaking, a comedy-led content series featuring comedian Kaneez Surka, using humour to explore the unwritten rules and contradictions of professional life.
The first edition centres on job interviews, with Surka portraying a candid HR professional who challenges conventional corporate etiquette. Across four short films, the series addresses familiar hiring situations, including salary negotiations, discrepancies between CVs and job descriptions, notice-period expectations and recruiter ghosting.
By highlighting the frustrations experienced by both recruiters and jobseekers, Frankly Speaking aims to turn everyday workplace challenges into relatable entertainment.
The initiative also marks Naukri’s effort to build a recurring content property around careers and workplace experiences, extending its communication beyond conventional job-search messaging. Shot in partnership with Zero Begins Films, the series is available across Naukri’s digital and social media platforms.
