With the ‘Summer Internship’ season coming to an end, IIM Kozhikode presents ‘Internship ‘K’ronicles’- an account of internship experiences from some of the brightest minds on ‘K’ampus.
Before we really get into the meat of this piece, a few words. It seems that my last article was a bit of a tear-jerker. A lot of people have told me about how impressive it was and how I’ve defined an entire way of life so beautifully. That being said, none of them offered to help with the washing of my socks. So that’s it for the milk of human kindness.
I interned with Edelweiss during my summer. I was allotted to the Retail Finance department. This department did not recruit management students as the other departments did. So, in comparison to the other interns I got a mentor who was the senior vice-president of the department rather than an executive with 2-3 years of experience.
With a focus on social sensitivity and maintaining a balance between 'value for values' while consciously moving towards achieving your ambitions, SPJIMR has often done things differently. The Development of Corporate Citizenship in one such endeavor in that direction. Every year, instead of summer internships, the entire batch of two hundred odd students undertakes a 6 week mandatory rural stint across the country. The stint includes a stay with the designated NGOs in the villages and working on a project which involves solving the very real and gritty problems that rural India grapples with.
If you are applying to Banking & Finance companies or are interning with them, this may be very useful.
