All in all, a year down JB teaches you that Management is more than a specialization in Marketing, Finance or Operations; it’s a delicate, well-balanced combination of all – like a table, without anyone of its legs, it wouldn’t stand firm- each equally important to master. JBIMS turns you into an all-rounder before you step out of the campus - into the corporate realm. There is no dull day at Bajaj, every day you learn – from the masters of the industry, from your fellow batch mates and the city itself.
So who says JBIMS does not have a campus? The entire city of Bombay is our backyard! Be it playing out a game of cricket at the Oval Maidan or hearing Noble Laureates enlighten you in a heritage precinct and the famous Queen’s Necklace overlooking the vast Arabian Sea with its cool evening breeze providing you the ideal spot to stir your thoughts, generate ideas and find solutions as you find your customers are here – people from every walks of life with no distinction of rich and poor. The entire city, is my classroom and I can bet, no management campus anywhere in the world can provide you this learning that JB drills into you – reality!
Which ABG Company would you want to work for and why?
Aditya Birla Group being one of the world’s leading conglomerates and its business operations so widespread - it offers innumerous opportunities to a fresh management graduate like me, which only a few might be able to match. Given a chance to work with the Aditya Birla Group, I would love to work with the Retail or the Fashion and Retail business in their Sales and Marketing functions. The sheer number of brands it holds, the wide variety of customers it serves and with operations across the country in both offline and online modes makes it extremely attractive. You get a chance to interact, set-up and fine tune every step of the retail chain – right from what to manufacture, what stocks to keep, how to keep your retailers, franchises and customers happy at every touch point. Doing all this while maintaining a strong and positive P&L – the Aditya Birla way.
As India reaps the demographic dividend, the purchasing powers of the populace increasing and so the demand to look good, to buy quality clothing as they head of to work or an evening to let their hair down. The Fashion and Retail industry is where all the action is and perfectly well suited for someone like me – with a never-ending eagerness to learn at every step and deliver satisfaction to each element in the value chain but profitably.
