Hostel in the campus makes me feel at home. They have all the provisions one needs on a day to day basis and where else in India would we find a hostel with a room heater (to combat cold weather during winters). Services like laundry and housekeeping ensure that I can concentrate on my studies without having to think about anything. It’s more like an extended family and there are always people who can feed you when you’re hungry or to give you company to the canteen at the very least ,irrespective of what time of the day it is.
IIM Shillong is a mini India in itself for the campus has people across the country from diverse academic, social and cultural backgrounds. We do learn a lot outside the classroom from the peer group, let alone the seniors who are always there to back up and impart all their experiences which I’m sure no textbook can offer. Students are the pillars of an institution and if everyone is unique in their own way, so will the college be.
Which ABG company would I like to work for and why?
IDEA Cellular Limited
During my tenure as a business analyst for a period of 19 months, I had the opportunity to work for one of the leading telecommunication giants of the US. I learnt the intricacies in different business segments such as Mobility, PayTV, Broadband and OTT. I also have a good knowledge about the NPS and customer satisfaction metrics from survey data. This experience of mine, coupled with the knowledge that I would gain from the course at IIM Shillong would surely position me as a valuable resource to the company and help to maximize the footprint of IDEA network in the coming years.
