Why Summer Placements Are More Important Than Final Placements

Why Summer Placements Are More Important Than Final Placements

June is that month of the year where a batch comes out of a ride and a new batch looks forward to the same for the next year. Summer Placements. When I was a b-school student I used to hear and over-hear casual remarks about this like “It's just SIP (Summer Internship Placements)”,” 2 Mahine ki to baat hai”, “go wherever you can and get out of this race”, “Finals me faad denge”. As a fresher (Or even as a lateral), you don’t have much idea about the processes and maybe you lack confidence, you feel less-than-prepared, or cant decide where to go. By the time you understand these while also settling into b-school curriculum, activities, committees, etc. SIPs start. So first thing first - I believe SIPs are more important than Finals. WHY?

A Bunch Of Brilliant Idiots At IIM Sambalpur

A Bunch Of Brilliant Idiots At IIM Sambalpur

Your day starts at 8.45 AM and never ends. There are classes, exams, assignments, assignments, and some more assignments. All of these, in a campus, situated nearly 20 km away from the city area, only between mountains, wildlife, and all kinds of floras and faunas that you can ever think of, except humans. Even the dogs around are never able to sniff out the omnipresent Dominos or CCD stores, let alone the niches. Sounds like a mundane life, doesn’t it? Well, guess what! It’s not even close. Why, you ask? Because IIM Sambalpur has little pieces of chocolates that save me from these life-sucking dementors. People call these chocolates as SaP.
