Diwali Vacation

I am going to Orai , my mausis place, for diwali. I have the train today evening at 5:30. I will be leaving with Ashrut my cousin

Alumini network

There was a meeting with 4 alumini in the college yesterday evening. they talked about their career their experiences and shared great insights. The main point they raised was that in these recessionary times you should not worry about the pay package and just go for the job. You will profit in the long run

Genesis 2008

We has a management fest genesis 2008 from 17th to the 19th of this month. it was overall an ok fest with participation from many colleges. I had also participated in the Ad-Mad show (where my team came 3rd) and was an audience in the panel discusion on the state of the economy which was covered by N.D.T.V. metronation. 

The start of the show had a lot of problems the biggest damp squib bein the Rock show where the ban could play only 3 and a 1/2 songs because of the time problem by the management. It was so humiliating and upsetting that i even wote a mail about it in the yahoo group of the batch.

The rest was O.K. and the fest ended on a positive note with a cultural evening but there were ample scope for improvement. hopefully the next time it will be better.

Asian Paints

Asian Paints had come to our college for summmer placements. I had sat for the GD but could not clear it. I will try to prepare more for other companies that will come for summer palcements

Summer Placements begin soon

Our paper was not selected in IIM Bangalore fest but that did not disappoint us as it was the first ever attempt to write a paper. That chappter is now closed and something much more important has come which will surely keep us on our toes. The much avaited summer placements are starting very soon but the exact date is not known yet. among the first companies that is expected to vist the campus is Asian Paints with the offer of the marketing profile which is the profile I wish to major in. So i have filled the form for asian paints and started the preparation by downloading the material about the company. If I get into Asian Paints it will be a very good boost for my career. I will get exposure in the marketing and sales department of a multinational while at the same time also earn a good stipend (Rs. 10,000 per month) hope everything is alright and I get into the company whenever it conducts the interviews

Happy Dusshera

I want to wish everyone a very Happy Dusshera! May the good (Common People) triumph over the evil(The terrorists)
