“The best thing about a sales and marketing intern is that you get to get your hands dirty” said all my seniors. I took all the necessary ‘gyaan’ from them about the working of the company, their expectations and what I should expect. I suppose for certain things you cannot be prepared enough. My intern at Philips taught me that!
I was wondering about my role at Wipro for my summer internship. I just knew that it was somewhere related to Marketing Analytics and Healthcare Domain thanks to the introductory E-mail from the HR. Soon my journey of eight weeks at Wipro Technologies started!
“There’s a first time for everything”
Things have happened around Mumbai for me; resigning from the first job at TCS without another offer in hand, twenty days of wilderness and then an offer from Reliance Jio, all in the city of dreams. This time, it was my internship at Future Generali India Life Insurance (FGILI). Well, I would like to believe, there are two kinds of students in MBA, those who like finance and then there are those who don’t. I happen to belong to the second category. I disliked finance so much that I didn’t even bother to apply for marketing profiles in banking, finance and insurance companies. But then again time moulds you, compulsion makes you reach places you never thought of. FGILI happened and the offer letter suggested a stay of two months in Mumbai.
If someone would have said then that this internship would turn out to be a life-changing experience for me, I would have never believed it. Consider it as luck, consider it as a gift from God, but I shall be grateful for this internship for developing me personally, and professionally.
As about 75 blazered, pastel color shirts donning, determined, excited, nervous, clean shaven, make up wearing heads simultaneously stretched out their necks from the two AC buses at 8 in the morning on the 4th April, 2017 to catch the first glimpse of the impressive ICICI BKC tower, my edgy and eager self somewhat proudly made part of the band. I plugged out my earphones while still noiselessly humming a-little-too-groovy for that morning “Jailhouse Rock” Presley number.
While consulting always seemed as this super alluring career dream I had never been exposed to it and I thought this was a great opportunity to learn and experience a new career domain. I got the opportunity to intern with the Advisory Services of PriceWaterhouse Coopers
In words of Eleanor Roosevelt – ‘The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience" and summer internship gives an opportunity and reason to taste and live newer and richer experience.
