Change is always scary but as they say, it is also inevitable. The decision to quit my job after four years of working in a firm and go on to pursue MBA was a tough one but I was determined to embrace the change with open arms. After days of going through different admission processes, it was decided XIMB was going to be my home for the next two years.
I had left my job and aspired to pursue my MBA from one of the reputed b-schools in the country. That’s the time I heard about XIM-B. Located at the heart of the country’s first smart city, the college with it’s impressive placement records and rich alumni base made me drool over it even before the game began. Still, like all the other future managers, I had some apprehensions about the lifestyle, curriculum and of course how will be my experience. And soon the D-day arrived. As I walked past inside the illustrious gates of XIM-B, at Jaydev Vihar, an entirely different world welcomed me with it’s open arms. I started meeting new people and once I started interacting I got amazed to come across the diverse profile, experiences as well as stories from them. The first thing that I learnt was the art of networking. Having worked at multinational companies, I was aware of the process of networking. But here I got to learn how fruitful the process can be and how it brings the best in you.
What are the most common words that echo in the corridors of B-schools and what well-groomed future-ready MBA professionals love to talk about? Placements, career, industries, markets, case studies, competitions. Yes! Competitions.
“I need something different in my life. What to do? Switch my job? The current work experience isn’t enough to do that. And well every job is going to be the same. Then?” These thoughts crossed my mind one fine day while I was relaxing on the most comfortable place in the world, my bed. I always wanted to get an MBA degree under my belt during my graduation years, but never start a focussed preparation.
Every aspiring MBA candidate hopes and dreams to get through a prestigious b-school in India. It goes without saying I was one of those candidates too. Our orientation commenced on the 18th of June and our icebreaking sessions started from that very day so that we feel comfortable with each other. In this document I would describe 5 individuals with unique and interesting personalities, thought process and characters. I wouldn’t want to name them so I would write about each one of them separately
I still clearly remember the first Marketing Management class on the very first day of my MBA at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak. The professor was Dr Shivendra Kumar Pandey, one of the best professors I have had till now.
Having given so many aptitude tests and working so hard along with the job, I wanted to join an MBA program which would help me with my overall character development. A program that would provide an environment for growth, for healthy competition and XIMB offered me the same.
