The last was a long trek up the mountain. We had to cross one very large and fierce river before reaching the place where lunch was served. After lunch, we started our trek reaching the top of the summit within 2 hours. We stayed at the summit for a few hours and then started our trek back. There were less than 5 guides among 180 people but luckily everybody was able to tread the correct path to the buses. The trek down was exceptionally beautiful as it covered the back side of the mountain with some rivulets and we had to protect ourselves from snakes and other wild animals. Luckily, we arrived at the point before time.
We eventually started India’s favourite pastime ‘Cricket’ for a good few hours before heading back. It was an exceptionally beautiful journey and one of the deepest sleep that I have enjoyed for more than a few years. Such experiences are not possible in any other campuses in the world.
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why?
I would like to work with Hindalco-Almex Aerospace Limited as it is focused on manufacturing components for Aerospace industry. As I am deeply interested in Defense and Aerospace sector, I have studied the business models of major companies in this sector. I believe that Aerospace and Defense will be one of the largest driving forces for India in the coming years. By creating components in this segment, the company is uniquely placed to capture value that is arising out of Defense Offsets contract and the ‘Make in India’ initiative of the company. Working with HAAL would be a unique confluence of my interests and company value proposition.
