One more DiGi pitch before the year ended, and a small one this time. This one is for the people inside DiGi, the new hires. When you join a company you have a lot of small questions in the first few weeks... how do I apply for emergency leave, why can't I get into this system. So the pitch is an app that pairs each new employee with a mentor and puts the two of them in a chat.

A list of your chats, and the chat itself, with messages, files and photos. We did it for iOS and Android, in DiGi yellow.
