Reviews and course correction sessions were scheduled at multiple points during the two months, facilitated by our campus anchor. I was given complete autonomy to decide the course that my project would take and was given access to all possible resources to facilitate the process. The recommendations I made based on my primary research and market visits went through an intensive pilot phase and were subsequently approved for implementation. The gruelling final presentation followed by a pre-placement interview taken by the C-level leaders of Marico made me realise how important this project was for Marico and how much of their trust and time they had invested in each of us. The two months at Marico made me fall in love with the company’s culture and I was lucky to be offered the position of Management Trainee soon afterwards.
Another milestone in my Marico journey was the opportunity to compete for the Best Functional Project. Each intern in the Sales domain made a presentation to Marico’s Chief Operating Officer for the same. I was very fortunate to be crowned as a winner in the Sales function.
During the course of my internship at Marico, I was given multiple opportunities to interact with people across verticals and build a deeper understanding of the business. A lot of time and resources were dedicatedly provided to us which also helped me unleash my creativity and help identify my true potential.
Summers at Marico has made me a more confident and self-motivated individual with a belief that it is the little things that make the biggest difference.
