Internships are often a pivotal part of a student’s journey, where they transition from theoretical knowledge to real-world application. My internship at Aditya Birla Group’s flagship company, Hindalco, in the Business Finance Department, was not just an experience but a transformational journey filled with learning, growth, and valuable contributions.
Ten months ago, I received admission to BITSoM and started connecting with my batchmates through common groups. Immediately, I was struck by imposter syndrome. I was amazed at how intelligent all of them were. Every day, there would be messages in the groups asking if anyone wanted to form a team to participate in case competitions. And here I was, not knowing what to do in a case competition nor what a case competition was.
In a world where we’re bombarded with ads on TV, social media, and even when we’re just walking down the street, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for brands to stand out.
