First bachelors of business administration and then Masters of Business administration, one thing that has remained common and consistent apart from the learning is formal wear. From early morning guest lecturers to all day long placement processes, from project presentations to corporate competitions, be it the organizing inter college events to participating in them, one thing I never wanted to compromise on was my attire. Van Heusen has always been my go to choice for formal attire.
I still remember that day, when I was nervously sitting in the waiting room, with a file full of documents in my shaking hands. I don’t remember how many times I must have memorized some answers in my head. The moment I heard my name being called there were a thousand things going on in my head for the most important interview of my life, the one that could make my MBA a worthwhile one. As I was walking through the corridors of the faculty block of IMI, New Delhi; I wasn’t sure how I was going to perform inside, I didn’t know what they could ask me, but one thing that I was sure of was my clothes. They say that first impression is the last impression and that first impression mostly depends on the way you look ask how presentable you are. I guess that really worked in my favor. For all my special and important days, Van Huesen shirts have been my first and a go to choice. From 2015 till now I don’t remember going to any other store other that Van Huesen for my formal shirts.
I always had been very confused about whether to take a job after graduation or not. Even on the day I was giving my CAT exam, I wasn’t sure about perusing an MBA degree when I was 20 years old. But, I didn’t want to leave any opportunity and then regret later so I decided to prepare for CAT while in my third year, managed my academics with CAT preparation and gave my 100 percent. The challenge that I faced was struggling internally with my own thoughts. Most of the times I was trying to contradict each and every thought that passed through. Although, by the end of my third year I was open to any decision, but I also didn’t want to regret my decision later. Finally, I went with my gut feeling and prepared really hard for my IMI interview and gave my hundred percent. At last with the right kind of attitude and clothing, I was able to crack it and here I am writing about my journey in this very college. Last but not the least, I don’t regret my decision and I am very proud of sitting here and perusing my MBA from the right place. It almost feels like I was meant to be here.
