Participate In Summer Saga Season 8 & Win Upto Rs. 15,000!
Hi, Tell us about how you got selected for this internship? Take us through the moment you realized you had got the internship.
Like every new b-schooler, I had participated in Godrej LOUD. Something that truly made this competition different from the rest is how they genuinely believe that you are more than just your CV. I was then selected as one of the special invitees which was a tremendous moment for me.
Through this, I was grateful to have got an opportunity for a PPI. The interview went really well, I was able to clearly communicate in a virtual setup and even the panelists were very warm. After few days, I was informed that I had gotten the internship, and trust me, I was on cloud nine. I was so excited to know that I would be working with a conglomerate as big as Godrej, the extraordinary kind of people I would be interacting with and the exposure I would get. It was just amazing!
On joining the company as an intern, how has your onboarding experience been like?
I believe that Godrej stands out because they really take their employees seriously. Our onboarding had started way before the internship was supposed to start. Their entire team was interacting with us on a regular basis, they helped us interact with one another and made sure that we do not feel anxious in the virtual setup.
We played games, participated in various activities organized by the team, and even got to know other brilliant interns. They did a really good job in onboarding us and then making us feel a part of them.
