Vasundhara, Jaipuria Indore - "The Preparations At Jaipuria Indore For Summer Training Placements Were So Exhaustive, That The Final Interview At Accenture Se
Online, July 4, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Vasundhara has just returned to Jaipuria Indore from Delhi, after a 2-month summer internshipwith the big daddy of all consulting firms, the dream company to work for - Accenture. Contrary to the perception that it is impossible to breach the highwalls of this corporate giant, Vasundhara found the process of being shortlisted by Accenture quite comfortable.
"I think it was the 'Jaipuria Indore' effect. It took me two rounds of telephonic interviews to crack Accenture, but what seemed to impress them the most was Jaipuria Indore's concept of a completely 'paperless' B-school education. You see, Jaipuria Indore does not believe in leaving it to the last month, but keeps up the summer placement sessions round the year. So by the time we reached the final month, we were well prepared and polished for our entry as effective interns. Summer internship preparations at Jaipuria Indore are designed to suit individual needs. For e.g., what are your individual strengths? Which business house are you targeting? We went through a planned series of mock interviews, aptitude tests, GDs, guest lectures and workshops. In fact," Vasundhara adds with a smile, "the preparations were so exhaustive, that the final interview seemed like a cakewalk."
Considering her area of interest, Accenture assigned Vasundhara the role of 'HR/Consultancy contractor', which required her to take care of the KPIs for an employee coming on board, as well as the final settlement in case of separation. She was also involved in designing the ESS (HR Portal) for one of Accenture's clients.
"The two-month internship has exposed me to many realities of the corporate world. Since I worked on areas which were entirely new to me, I had a lot of scope to explore my potential and find my forte. Jaipuria Indore has given us a platform to nurture ourselves in a comprehensive manner through cultural activities, workshops and sports. Personally, I am a voracious reader, and spend a lot of my time in the well-stocked library."
Vasundhara is sanguine about joining a leading consultancy firm on passing out ofJaipuria Indore, and hopes to be an inspiration to the future students of Jaipuria Indore.
