Summer Internship Musings – By Anonymous
A summer internship is never short of surprises – good and bad. A mail is sent a month prior to the commencement of SIP with a project title and brief – and the madness begins (though by now we should have been used to it in a B-school). I frantically consulted a few professors about scope and domain as I had no clue about what to do - little did I realise that the people in my SIP organization were in the same boat; they just goad us to work hard to give them the ‘earth-shaking idea’. Oh yeah, that’s the mistake I might have made by opting to do an MBA – I am THE panacea for all organization’s problems and no one understands that I am a fellow human being in the learning curve (Freshers beware! the curve is very steep and you can compete with your experienced classmates only a couple of years into your permanent job).
