Continuing his talk, Johann Matthai, Manager of Customer Strategy at Monitor Deloitte, touches upon how he approached the GMAT exam, and what your GMAT score can mean for you. From scoring around 650 in his first mock to 770 in the final GMAT exam, he talks of why it is important for Indians to score higher.
Johann Matthai has a long list of premier institutions in his CV. From St. Stephen's College to MICA to HEC Paris and Cornell, his resume shines brightly. He is currently working as a Manager in Customer Strategy at Monitor Deloitte. One very interesting thing to note about Johann is that he graduated from MICA in the midst of an economic crisis. The world saw a financial crash in the year 2007-8, and while the world was recovering, students graduating in 2008 and 2009 were faced with a very difficult situation. Many placements were affected, which in turn had an impact on their careers. How do you deal with such a reality? With the world currently battling a pandemic, experts predict a similar financial slowdown. If you are a student who is worried about what's in store for you in the future, and how you should prepare for it, this video is for you!

Coronavirus and the CoViD 19 pandemic has put most of the world into lockdown. Work and systems are all undergoing a transformation. Meanwhile, MBA aspirants and MBA students get some extra time. And this is great because if you are a student, you can take this time to learn a new skill or sharpen your existing skills. Or you can take this time to figure out a future career path as an aspirant. In fact, we hold Konversations Cafe events every year to help you on just such a journey. But that too is not possible this year. Which is why we start this new property - Konversations Reloaded. Here's an effort to help you prepare for the future. Are you ready? Today we take at Seema Bansal’s long stint in consulting with BCG.
Continuing his talk, Rahul Gadi tells us of his experience in Zomato, and what his role of Head - Regional Growth comprises of. He talks of positive growth, what it is and how he ensures that his users are satisfied. He talks of the online ordering space and how people's ordering habits differ when ordering in a restaurant and ordering through an app. Later in the interview, we touch upon the current coronavirus pandemic, and how it is affecting all our lives.
Rahul Gadi, currently Head - Regional Growth at Zomato, MICA alum, always wanted a good career, and so he decided to do CA. However, after clearing the first two levels, he realised he found it extremely boring, and couldn't see himself doing an accountant's job for the rest of his life. He soon quit and his search for something interesting brought him to MICA. While there were a lot of things to talk about from his MBA days, the one fond memory that he has is of running the mess committee. He always had a knack for food, and found the experience extremely pleasant. Perhaps that love for food is what drove him to start his own ice-cream parlour, and ultimately took him to Zomato.
