Late night prep for early morning presentations, lectures throughout the day, competitions, guest lectures, workshops soon became the daily routine of our lives. By virtue of being together almost all the time turned our batchmates into allies and this gave rise to ‘Legit Western’, my family of 7 batchmates from the Western line of Mumbai - acing MBA was our objective and Bajaj (as we like to call it) was our home. Only when it felt like things had started to be comfortable, came the much-feared Placement Week. The aura soon turned into that of gut wrenching nervousness and anxiety. However, the strategic location of Bajaj helped the downpour of companies on our campus and quick placements for all our batchmates.
Post our first year, we set out for our summer internships, another major checkpoint of our MBA life with immense learnings, opportunity to experience the practical world and which allow us exposure to the corporate society, which we soon will be a part of. These internships are the gateway to the corporate world and hence play a crucial role in determining a b-school students career. Hence, to bag an opportunity with a giant such as The Aditya Birla Group in the fashion and retail division (Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Ltd.) is not just a mere opportunity, but a dream come true for a student inclined towards marketing.
