To the Class of 2019,
Summer internships are the most important two months of an MBA. It's not only about PPOs and PPIs but also about the mistakes and learnings in the past two months. Summer internships may be over but you can still share your experience and win prizes for it! Who says no to prizes?
Summer Saga is a competition where students from different b-school in India participate by sharing their internship experiences. It's not only useful for your juniors but even you get featured on a platform where professionals from different companies are present! What's more? We have judges from Nestle and Flipkart. So share your internship experience, get noticed, and win prizes.
