When it comes to choosing either Finance or Marketing, there always seems to be a confusion in the minds of B-school students. For some, it comes as a natural choice given the academic backgrounds and interests they have. For others, it's a journey that they take during their B-school life. We have two IMT Ghaziabad students Shantanu Shivam and Kanav Kaushal, who not only figured out what they would like their careers to look like after their B-school, but cracked marquee companies like ITC and Goldman Sachs from campus as well. In this conversation, we dive deeper into how you get the coveted internship and convert it into a job at these companies. *This is a promoted feature.
