Aditya Birla Group with its footprint in various sectors-metals, textiles, carbon black, telecom and cement had a greater impact in my life. Anchored by an extraordinary force of over 120,000
employees belonging to 42 nationalities, the Group is built on a strong foundation of stakeholder value creation. As said by Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla, “Our values provide us with our roots and they provide us with our wings”, the Group has been always striving to provide value in each of its products that has helped it to achieve greater heights in 34 countries.
From my childhood days, as far as I remember, Idea is the only network that has good signal strength in most of the villages. My parents have been using only the Idea network even now. It has made our lives easier by allowing us to stay connected with people. Now-a-days Vodafone is providing good internet connection enabling many of us to make use of online services.
I pay attention to every minute detail of my dresses. I would always love to get dresses stitched to fulfill all my requirements. When I visited Pantaloons for the first time during Dusshera, I was amazed to see a very good collection of dresses. It has become favorite shopping spot from then. The clothes have value for each penny I spend there.
Allen Solly has provided me good options in formal wear and I need not look for other stores.
In this way, Aditya Birla Group has added great value in many aspects of my life.
I was interested only in science in my childhood. But even after pursuing Mechanical Engineering, I was not satisfied with what I was doing in my life. I had taken up a job and after a long
brainstorming, I decided that I was interested to work in strategy and decision making roles. I was an introvert and a very soft-spoken person. I was unsure whether I would be able to handle such a role. However, I had taken a step to prepare for CAT and also was trying to mingle
with people.
I was not able to crack CAT in first attempt with a good score due to lack of preparation. The next year, I started preparing seriously. Then I was working in a hectic project, where I had to even
provide weekend support if needed. As, I was the only tester, I was not allowed to take leaves. I was not willing to compromise on the quality of my project work due to my preparation.
I managed to handle both the project work and CAT preparation and was able to get a decent score. With consistent efforts in preparing for further rounds, I made it into IIM-Nagpur. Though I haven’t
changed completely, I can see the difference in the way I am talking to people. I can talk to strangers and make connections now in a comparatively better way.
I am trying to make use of 2 years at this college to build my profile and overcome my weaknesses to be a better person and an effective manager.
