Remember the iconic Fevicol Ads on TV? Or the one where your fortunes changed within seconds of applying Fevikwik on a fishing rod? For decades, these ads have made these brands something that every Indian household trusts. And these iconic brands germinated from more than half a century old parent company, Pidilite.
A company that thrives on its innovative approach to problem-solving and has a history of unique products under their name. Now, Pidilite wants you to be in their shoes. You get to be the decision-maker to solve a business problem.
We present you, Bond with Pidilite, the ultimate B-school case study competition. An opportunity to bond with Pidilite and get a Summer Internship with a company that is ‘a part of you’.
*This is a promoted feature.
So how does it work?
Fairly simple.
- Form a team of three from your B-school. This is also an opportunity to know your peers a bit better and find your match during this online learning experience. Try to have a good gender mix in your team as well.
- Download the Kampus app here, register your team with a unique name, and fill in all the details.
- You will get to know about your business case on the app, under Round 1.
- Introduce your team, mention what are the scopes for the business case you have got, and give an outline of what would be your approach to solve it. Send in the same in a PDF/PPT, in not more than 3 pages/slides.
- Selected Ideas will make it to Round 2, where you have to send in a detailed PPT/PDF of your case study. The more creative your solution, the better your chances of going through to the finals.
- Top 5 selected teams would then be chosen for Round 3, where you have to present your ideas in front of a panel consisting of judges from Pidilite and InsideIIM. This would be an online presentation session conducted over a Microsoft Team Call.
- The winning team will get a summer internship with Pidilite.
Note:
The team leader will have to submit the details of his/her team members. Once registered, the team members will be able to see the competition on the Kampus App. All team members should log in/register with the same email address added by their team leader.
