2-3 Years passed by, and finally, I felt the need to go back to studies. Was promoted quite rapidly with the additional workload being handed over, but I was always attracted to the business world. How companies design their strategies to do business in this ruthless and competitive world where customers can be very trying. Work too demanded to know the business and functional aspects of the client, when I finally decided to prepare for exams which will lead to the next logical step of my career, an MBA from a reputed institute.
XIMB was always among first of the choices, with a legacy of 30+ years, building socially responsible managers and a wide alumni base, who work in almost every major conglomerate. The interview went exceedingly well and was very confident of a final convert. And so it was.
Fast forward to 17th June 2018. My-oh-my. The first step into the campus, it felt like heaven. Lush green, sparkling clean and legacy buildings were there for a warm welcome.
12 PM into the night, can’t describe the feeling!
Better get back to studies now, eh?
Which ABG company would I like to work for?
Undoubtedly, it would be Idea Cellular. Primed for a strategic merger with Vodafone India, the combined company will be the market leader in terms of subscribers and market share. India is currently witnessing a data revolution being led by Idea in terms of both rural-urban coverages. Heavy investments are being put in to upgrade sites and cater to the ever-increasing demand. The idea is very strategically positioned to make a significant impact while serving the Indian consumers, owing to its strong spectrum and asset footprint. Telecom being a personal passion, I would love to ride this wave of digital revolution in India via Idea.
