Virtual Internship of PGDM (GM) Students
To me, the internship was a valuable part of my Executive MBA journey. This was a perfect opportunity for me to apply many newly learnt theoretical knowledge and other analytical skills. It was a great exposure to work in a completely different field of work than my previous work experience. This experience helped us implementing our theoretical concepts of market analysis & business strategy while understanding many new industry perspectives. Despite our rigorous course structure, we enjoyed devoting time to this project as a team and it was a great learning opportunity.

The internship I did at Rediffusion Solutions allowed me to get hands-on learning of branding & marketing strategy. Problem Statements given to me as part of the internship gave me an opportunity to handle real-life business constraints efficiently and profitably. I have worked for established companies like Tata motors via this internship that gave me an opportunity to work on a strategy from its ideation to execution. The internship helped me with widening my overall outlook and business understanding, which in turn could be leveraged during my final placement interview. Discussion around this internship was a key part of my placement process that convinced the interviewer of my strengths.
