"The smallest of things have the biggest impact in your life", this is a quote that is true for all the products from Aditya Birla Group that have been helpful in my whole life.
Life is all about the inevitable ups and downs. The roller coaster ride lifts up spirits, teaches numerous lessons along the way and gives an opportunity to recognize the impermanence of life. Good things and bad things happen to everyone, but the successful ones are who manage with ease and lead a happy life. In every such individual’s journey, there is a thing that helps them navigate smoothly and overcome all fears and obstacles. This role, in my life, has been played by Aditya Birla Group and its brands - A group that resonates with every Indian, delivering products and services impacting numerous lives, with a sole intention to make a difference to the society and the world at large.
Like many others, I had also always wanted to pursue masters from an IIM which would lead me to the path of success in my professional career. MBA is one of the most common degreed and like many others it was also my choice for further education. But the road to the same was not easy and came with mainly two hurdles which are the CAT exam and the Interview/GD selection procedure. The first leg being the exam required hard work and tutions and lots of practice. Though it felt like that getting a good score was almost equal to getting admission into a good college but as I learned later it was not. The interviews and GDs were equally important for final admission and required efforts too. The process was tiring but the light at the end of the tunnel made it worthwhile. The various interviews, Group discussions that I participated in to get admission into a good college taught me a lot over time. Now that I have been through it, I realized that confidence in oneself is as integral to the preparation one does for interviews. Confidence can make or break an interview. It is very possible that we would be asked a question to which we have no idea what the answer could be. In some cases, the interviewer may not be looking to judge our knowledge but our confidence, this is where good confidence can help us clear away from negative marking. I am not saying confidence is the only important thing but that it is an essential element. Preparation for the same in terms of theory and other aspects are important but to really ace the interview it is important to be confident and convince the person that you are a worthy candidate. The preparation itself alone may not suffice always. But good preparation, in turn, gives us more confidence, so it is more of one thing leading to the other rather than two completely different things.
