It all began with a WhatsApp text from a person who was going to be my roommate for the next two years, after the declaration of results. We were all excited to begin this journey curious to know what has the destiny planned for all of us. After all the frantic activities of searching accommodations and completing the admission procedures, little did we know that this journey will be one of the most exciting two-year journey that we will undertake. JBIMS with all its legacy and grandeur was prodding us to carry on this legacy forward and live up to the expectations. After frenzied induction that we had, we all were about to relax that finally it is behind our backs, suddenly we were bombarded with the schedule of GLs and classes which went from morning 7 am to sometimes 11 pm in the night. But today when we look back, we all are glad to be part of this melting pot of different cultures. One of the unique qualities of JBIMS is that, it teaches each member of JBIMS community to manage things that are at one’s disposal rather crib about it. This single thing I think makes JBIMS what it is today. We may not have lush green campuses, high end infrastructure that other institutes may boast of but JBIMS has the spirit and will power to learn from the resources that are at our disposal without making a fuss about it. Sometimes it’sfrustrating to see the apathy of government towards the institute, when we see the non-functional and degrading infrastructure but our professors and alumni are the ones who inspires us to work hard and achieve the best with the available resources. This one year at JBIMS has ingrained in all of the quality of managing things the way it is. JBIMS community is so closely knitted that faculty comprises of alumni of 1970s and their students both comes to campus to groom students.
Aditya Birla Group is one of the oldest and biggest conglomerates of India. Being a Civil engineer and a marketing enthusiast, it’s been a dream to work in manufacturing sector where I can perform to the best of my ability. ABG have majority of its businesses in manufacturing sector ranging from Aditya Birla Chemicals Limited to Hindalco Limited to Ultratech Cement Limited. Apart from this, Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited will also give the opportunity to work to my full potential. These companies will give me the opportunity to test the skills that we have acquired during the 2 years at JBIMS. ABG is a pioneer in producing leaders for the country in respective domains and I think working for a company with vision and mission to change the very way industry works in this country is a great reason to work for ABG. Also, in one of Guest Lectures of our alum who works in one of the ABG companies have given me the peek into working of the company and how the company has been able to shape his view towards the industry. Thus I would be very eager to work for one of these companies in ABG.
