It has been only three weeks since our session started here but even in this short span of time, my journey at FMS so far has been full of memorable experience. One such experience happened during my finance session. I am from an engineering background and as such have always associated class with theoretical learning. But here at FMS, there is a great focus on experiential learning and as a part of it, during one of our finance sessions, we participated in a virtual stock market investment activity. We were divided into a team of 5 members each and were given a list of a number of companies and with a budget of 10 lakh rupees, we were asked to invest in as many of them so as to maximise our profit. There were 10 rounds and the team with the maximum amount at the end was to be the winner. We were also given various parameters at the end of each round so as to decide the future growth of each stock. In the end, our team was able to increases our investment of 10 lakhs to 15 lakhs and came 5th out of 30 odd teams. This is my one of the most memorable experience because, during that one hour of the session, I probably learned more about investment than I’ve had till then. I stepped into the shoes of an investor and was forced to think like one as my money was at stake. This was a true example of learning with fun.
Introducing - some of my crazy batchmates
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why
The Aditya Birla Group company I would want to work for would be Hindalco Industries Limited. It would be a great honour and a privilege for me to work at Hindalco. The first reason why I want to work at Hindalco would be the immense amount of learning opportunities provided at Hindalco and would help me grow at both professional as well as personal level. Hindalco believes in core values of integrity, commitment and passion-all of which aligns with my belief system and hence I think Hindalco would be the best match for me. Also being one of the world’s biggest company in its sector, Hindalco would provide me great exposure and a chance to work with and learn from the best people working out there.
