MBA eddddddddd
Visitin this space after a long long time again. I am very excited to say that another degree is added to my name. And in another two days the great awaited day is coming. I am not sure when I will be joining in my job as I am still waiting for the joining date details. But Most prolly it may be in the first week of may.
Days went real fast and i still remember the orientation week here at ISB. I feel as I am getting ready for the orientation week only to find that I am done with my MBA. Last one week was such a boring week. Absolutely no work. Just doing some crap, visiting friends, freakin out, trying to find some innovative ways to pass the time. But I should say that last 1 year was such a wonderful and memorable year in my life. I cherished every moment and every minute in this last one year. I am sure I remember this year for my rest of life.
I still remember how people tried to persuade me to not to join in ISB. Sometimes it is such a bad feeling when people try to use you for their own advantage. I did few mistakes after my engineering. The best lesson I learnt in my life is when you want to say NO for something say it. Otherwise you will regret later. After all its your life, no one will take responisbility for any bad that happens in your life. Forget past but dont forget the lessons you learnt from the past. There are still people who think that going abroad is such a great thing. Actually speaking its not a big deallllll. And another funny thing is looks like this time H1B's selection has become a random selection process. But the fact is DO I CARE....Another conscious decision which I took is not to join in small companies just for the heck of money. I am not ambitious about money but I am ambitious about my career.
I am satisfied with what I am right now and with what I have. Its just that I have to be careful in further choosing the career lane. I even want to do Phd but definitely not in near future. May be somewhere down the lane. Let's see how things goes later.

Term7
Again back after long time. Just getting the momentum lost to post any updates in my blog. Term 7 started almost a month ago and in another few days it is about to finish too. I have just taken only three subjects this term (as if i need time to prepare for the interviews). With this term I finished my Fin Major. I have taken Negotiation Analysis in this term. Its really a fundoo subject. I enjoyed every class. Professor is damn good for this subject and you just should not miss his class. In one of the previous terms, as part of Negotiations topic (which was again dealt with the same professor-Dishan Kamdar) we watched a movie -12 Angry Men. As the name says, the movie just contains 12 characters. It is all about how one person can convince the rest of the angry and uninterested men. It is real tough if the other party is not at all interested in listening. Believe me Guys you'll enjoy watching this movie.
We have almost reached the most important phase of MBA...Placementsssss. Officially we will have one week for placements. Companies which ever want to participate in the placements will register and post the job details in the web portal and we should apply before the deadlines mentioned. Just before the Placement week shortlists will be anounced and then comes the D-week where in the shortlisted candidates gets interviewed. We can take max two offers and should accept/reject one offer. Students will bid the companies and based on the overall rank students assign to companies, companies should visit the campus. All the Top tier consulting companies like McKinsey will be coming on Day-0 and the rest based on the student bids. Hope everyone get good job and lets see what is there in the bag this time.
Term 8 will start from 26th of February. Guess though there is an official placement week..it just continues till march. God! I need a good job
