'Re-Imagining Finance' - Summer Internship At AkzoNobel - Sumeet Mohapatra, JBIMS

When you dream a career in Finance and land at the right place and the right college. Here the place is Mumbai and the college is JBIMS. As soon as I joined JBIMS, preparation for summer interviews started in full swing. Our seniors and alums helped us a lot in building a solid resume and also took several rounds of mock interviews. I brushed up all the current affairs, read "The Hindu" and "Business Standard" line to line. The scope of career paths in Finance puzzled me a lot. I narrowed my focus to companies which offered Corporate Finance role. As Corporate Finance provides a multitude of career paths starting from Treasury to General Management. Luckily, after 2 rounds of interview, I got an internship offer from AkzoNobel (famously known for its "Dulux" brand), the world's 2nd largest paint manufacturer. I think going through the annual reports of a company helps a lot in knowing your target companies peers, strength, weakness and of course the core values.

The Sense of Family At IIM Raipur Makes The Campus Unique - Moon Moon Tiga

Normally people judge a college by its infrastructure, faculties and its placement figures and but rarely people ask for its culture. I would rather say that college cannot be declared good until or unless it has a good culture. And this is what IIM Raipur is rich at it.
