'SCMS Cochin had done everything possible to make sure we were industry ready' - Chandana PK, Placed with Deloitte

Of course, Chandana and her batch mates were put through special training and coaching programs that prepared them well for the placement process. She also mentions the contribution of her faculty members who remained accessible to support her at any time. “I also think my summer internship experience with Mahindra Finance was a big help. Overall, SCMS Cochin had done everything possible to make sure we were industry ready,” she adds.

Chandana’s journey at the institute has been a roller coaster ride, one which she has enjoyed thoroughly. As she prepares for her role as a professional she is filled with nostalgia and emotions. “I am definitely going to miss my friends from the institute and the hostel, which was the stage for many lovely memories,” she says, thinking back. “SCMS Cochin is a great place for your overall growth and I’d like to ask students to make the most of the opportunities it offers them.” Obviously, Chandana made the most of it – and her hard work and dedication has paid off well.
