Journey To A B-School

From Samsung To DoMS IIT Roorkee: A Beautiful Journey – Richa Gupta’s Story

Today, when I look back at my life, the past 8 years has been really a blessing. It all started with getting into one of the most prestigious engineering college in India, NIT Raipur. With good knowledge of Computer Science, I got an on-campus placement in Samsung Electronics, which took me to another level. While working with Samsung, the four business trips to the USA and South Korea, made it a modern-day dream-job. After having 3 enriching years of experience at Samsung, I felt the need to know more about Business and how all the pieces (Product/Service, Finance, Marketing, Operations, IT, R&D, HR) fall into place to make it BIG! The same year I gave CAT Examination and was lucky enough to get into one of the prestigious Management Institute (MHRD ranked 8th of all Management Institute in India in 2017) Department of Management Studies, IIT Roorkee.

My Journey To IIM Raipur - PGP (CAT - 6th Trial)

I was sitting in a Theatre watching a movie and my phone rang. One of my friends told me about his CAT result. I decided not to check mine on the website because I don’t want to know my result as I don’t want failure 6th time. This was my 6th trial; I was appearing for CAT since 2011 and never missed a single year.

'From Majestic Building To Finding Partners For Everything' - Mayank Ojha's Journey To DoMS IIT Roorkee

“Fill these and submit them to counter number 12.”; a lady handing me an envelope brought me out of the mesmerized state I was in, while imagining myself in this huge campus jogging in foggy winters in the spectacular college ground I just saw on the way or just roaming around, and was already making plans on the poses for the pics I will surely click in front of the majestic main building which has a 170 years old legacy (honestly not imagining anything related to curriculum, well who does that …?).

The most crucial lesson that I have learnt is to keep moving in spite of a lot and lot of failures. Failures are very important to help you succeed. Treat it as motivation to do better and you will go places.
