'Don't Be Afraid Of Taking A Path Less Trodden' - Ketan Diwate's Internship Experience At Hella India - IIM Sambalpur

'Don't Be Afraid Of Taking A Path Less Trodden' - Ketan Diwate's Internship Experience At Hella India - IIM Sambalpur

As I traveled to Pune from Sambalpur to start my internship at Hella India Automotive Pvt. Ltd. (HIA), I had no idea what to expect from the days which lay ahead. Being a fresher (not exactly having the experience of a desk job), I feared that my concept of ‘the office life’ would be far from reality. However, it was a necessary pill to be consumed, as an MBA course would be incomplete without getting a taste of life at work. On the other hand, my internship at Hella could end up being an enriching experience which could change my perspective on a lot of things. With these thoughts in mind, I set foot into my office.

Well to be fair, learning has always been one of the main reasons for pursuing MBA but most of us pursue this course to get better job opportunities which is justified given the fact how major companies hire “brand managers”, “sales managers” etc only through this route. However is learning the secret ingredient for bagging best placements?

The old ways of assessing performance have proven to be costly and ineffective. Bell curve alias relative comparison has been observed to be time consuming and often detrimental to performance.

Raghuram Rajan Is Not Done, Yet - Finance Guru Tamal Bandyopadhyay Speaks

Raghuram Rajan Is Not Done, Yet - Finance Guru Tamal Bandyopadhyay Speaks

That the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) would not cut its policy rate in the August bi-monthly review was almost a given. To that extent, there was no surprise in the monetary policy review on Tuesday. Far more interesting than the 2,175-word review was the statement that RBI governor Raghuram Rajan read out (it was roughly one-third of the policy review, in length) at the customary press conference after releasing the review. It ended intriguingly. “This is my last policy statement, but there are still 28 days in my term which I intend to use fully,” Rajan said.
