Before you join IIM Calcutta, there are a few things that you need to be aware of about the Institute and the city (if this is your first visit to Kolkata):
How has Japan fared in its economic experiment-'Abenomics'?
By now admission process for most of the B- schools is over and aspirants are busy checking their results, waiting lists etc. Thanks to social media which is acting as a great platform for clearing the queries of aspirants. Special thanks to seniors of B- schools who are bringing the information from management to clear the doubts of converted and waitlisted students.
The economies in nations across the world are facing saturation of opportunities and cut throat competitions in complex business environments. The need of the hour is to not just build and run successful businesses but to carry an entrepreneurial mindset in any career role chosen by the future managers. IIM Udaipur follows a pedagogy which strives to inculcate the spirit of entrepreneurship in its students.

Bablu, Kohli and Laxman are familiar names for any IIFTian. They are a part of the army of dhabas that surround the campus. These dhabas are the lifeline of the college. These are the go-to places in the breaks for a chai or bournvita. They provide the most affordable food for students according to their customized needs. When you are away from home this is what keeps you going. I am sure each IIFTian will credit a part of their degree to these dhabas which provide you the parathas, maggis, chais and Tzingas at all times and keep you going.
The majority of the workforce considers the HR department responsible for everything wrong with their organization. An HR manager is Satan spawn, the Devil incarnate, the rotten face of unadulterated, pure evil. Your inflexible work schedule is the HR’s fault. You have too few days off because your HR hates you. Your performance appraisal got screwed because the HR didn’t like your tie. Your promotion will be stalled till the next cycle because the stingy HR isn’t ready to pay you according to the hard hours and backbreaking labour you put in. The poor workers in the factories are being oppressed because the HR doesn’t care about their welfare (this brings to mind the Manesar incident when the Maruti HR was burned alive. He was supposedly on the workers’ side too). Given all this, it’s more than a little ironic that the majority of this piece was written on Labour Day.
