Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (JBIMS), one of the popularly known b-schools in India with a batch of total 140 students for MMS course (2017 -2019). I also applied to JBIMS like every other student with a dream to do MBA in a top institute. It all started with my first hurdle of when I got shortlisted for this college but having to serve notice period for the previous company I ended up joining little late and from there with all the chaos of doing previous assignments, getting to know the curriculum, placement registration, applying for committees my friends helped me to get everything settled. A bunch of 140 students who know each other extremely well is our strength it teaches us how much networking is important for our careers. Here we are taught collaboration. Every step in JBIMS is learning. According to me the uniqueness of JBIMS is its visiting faculty who brings industrial knowledge apart from classroom learning. Due to visiting faculty visits we also have a very dynamic schedule which made us learn how to manage time efficiently. I think this is one of the basic skills which every leader has to learn i.e. every leader has to deal with uncertainties and this is one of the very basic things we do daily. JBIMS teaches us a lot of other things apart from a dedicated curriculum of MMS, it teaches us a value of time and other skills which is important for us to become a leader.
JBIMS gives us a base which is a mix of subject matter experts and other skills which are required for a professional and to become a leader in the future. Now to build on it and make JBIMS proud is my responsibility. Being known as JBite makes me feel proud. The reason I want to join Aditya Birla Group group is my father started his career with Aditya Birla Group as a graduate trainee and has spent half of his career journey with the group due to which I personally know how nice the work culture is, how employees work together as one family in this organisation. When my father was working in Grasim Industries I also got an opportunity to be a part of speech given by honourable Kumar Mangalam Birla, his attitude and passion for work inspires me a lot, he is an immense inspiration for me to join ABG. I want to join Aditya Birla Capital as it is one of the top financial services company in India and as I am interested in Finance and I want to pursue my career in financial services.
