I would like to keep myself anonymous for obvious reasons, but that will not deter me from telling the (tiresome but wonderful) experience that I have had during my internship.
Leading FMCG brands are often the most sought after organizations for internships by marketing enthusiasts. In the second edition of the ‘IIMK Internship ‘K’ronicles’ series, Tara Rajagopalan shares her experience at ITC.
