Jaipuria Noida Placement Update

Shikha Gupta, A Graduate of Jaipuria Noida, gets reminiscent about her time at the B-School.

Shikha Gupta is a graduate of Jaipuria Noida, and had been placed, on-campus, in an enterprise communication company called ‘Value First’. ‘Value First’ is a comprehensive digital solutions provider that is internationally renowned for its mobile, SMS and Internet marketing services. After her PGDM from Jaipuria Noida, Shikha was given charge of the sales & support department and is currently handling the ‘Fab India’ project by providing them all the back-end support that they require.
When asked about her time with Jaipuria Noida, she tells us, “I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in Jaipuria. Never did I regret my decision of pursuing my PGDM here. The faculty is very supportive; whenever we needed them, they were always there for us, without fail. Be it for a silly issue or for curriculum guidance, they were always there.”
Belonging to a relatively small batch of management students at Jaipuria, Shikha especially remembers how compatible she was with her peers and how her experience not only included academic learnings, but a number of other co-curricular activities such as cultural events and industrial visits.
We asked how her experience at Jaipuria changed her, and she goes on to tell us “Prior to Jaipuria, life for me was all about having fun and nothing else. But when I entered Jaipuria I came to realize what the professional world was actually about. There are always people who play politics and try to use their power, so I actually had a gist of how things are in the corporate world. We learnt how to manage time, how to understand concepts, and how to grasp things quickly. In the two years that I spent here, I learnt how to present myself and how to take charge of a presentation. Initially we used to hesitate in front of a gathering of 40 people, but now we have gained immense confidence to present anything to any number of people.”
During her term at Jaipuria, Shikha also had the opportunity to intern with Fundoodata.com where she handled a social media marketing profile. She thoroughly values this experience as an opportunity to learn, and believes that it played an integral role in her management education and development of skills.
Shikha’s message to her juniors is to make the most of their time at Jaipuria, have fun and to always be themselves!

Jaipuria Noida STUDENT Speaks

Isha Mishra, 2010-12 Batch – “MBA is about Navigating Your Opportunities into Gainful Experiences ”

The distinct strength of Jaipuria-Noida’s network, the calibre of people, the high level of student engagement, and the overall environment all stood out for Isha Mishra, who recently graduated from Jaipuria, majoring in Finance and Marketing.
Before her PGDM, she also held a prestigious degree in BTech from Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology.
What Isha loved is that Jaipuria’s culture is incredibly student-driven and dynamic; the school is constantly pushed forward, shaped, and redefined by its students, which is why Jaipuria holds such a fantastic reputation across many fronts. “These elements seem intangible until you visit and see them come to life in its excellent facilities, Infrastructure and energy on campus” says Isha. It’s these overarching qualities, coupled with the strength of the Jaipuria program itself, which made Jaipuria an easy choice for Isha after scoring a great percentile in her CAT.
Once Isha started attending her classes, the two memorable years passed in a whiff…She had a fantastic experience gaining her dual specialisation in Finance and Marketing and was lucky to have a wide spectrum of opportunities under the Jaipuria Label. For once, she was an active member of her Finance and Marketing Club (Jaipuria hosts a range of clubs spanning across different industry verticals such as HR, Finance, Marketing etc). Some themes which she saw included innovative thinking, social responsibility and a strong commitment to personal learning and growth. As you can tell these clubs provide with significant overlapping philosophies from a diverse pool of students and it’s about finding the people and working in groups and approach what you best connect with.
The first year ended with Isha bagging an Internship with a Financial and Operational Consultancy start-up, AG Knowledge Tech. Here she put into practice her financial chisels into delivering Finance & Operational excellence for one of AG’s clients. “I came to Jaipuria to pursue finance and marketing so my summer provided terrific exposure to a consulting set-up, strong networking opportunities, and the foundation to help solidify my longer-term career goals.” Moreso, Isha also wrote white papers for her internship company, which have now been published online.
In many ways Jaipuria is a microcosm for the working world – with many interesting challenges, and a finite amount of time. You have to navigate your experience deliberately and Isha did so by co-ordinating various events for her Annual fest, where she got to try something uncharacteristic.
From a study perspective, Isha not only found her professors incredibly dynamic, but also appreciated the discussion that are grounded in practice and helped her draw impactful insights from them. She was particularly impressed and enjoyed her classes of ‘security Analysis and Portfolio Management’ by Anurag sir. Seeing how practitioners think about these topics is what makes the course that much more impactful, thought-provoking, and relevant.
Post-PGDM, Isha will be moving to join Hyundai Motors in its Marketing Communications group.  “Jaipuria was instrumental in my summer internship and full-time career decisions. Having a renowned, top-tier B-School name and being a target school for many recruiters accelerate the process and made access to companies that much easier” says Isha. The career services did facilitate the on-campus recruiting process, but equally important were Isha’s 1st and 2nd year peers who provided candid conversations, coaching, and feedback through every stage of her recruiting process.

Pallavi Singh , 2010-12 Batch – " Summer internship proved decisive in my final placement at Deloitte ”

Pallavi is happy and excited as she has got placed with Deloitte. Just talk to her for a few minutes and you realize she really deserves it.  She comes across as a very mature and intelligent person. Confidence in her voice is infectious. She thanks Jaipuria Noida for this total transformation in her personality. “At Jaipuria, they teach and train you to become managers. Communication classes, personality development sessions, presentations, projects, and seminars are regular part of the curriculum that imparts so much of practical training that when you appear for interviews , you don’t get  nervous,” says Pallavi.
Jaipuria Noida curriculum stresses on practical training which helps students excel when they enter in the corporate world. Placement cell of the Jaipuria prepares students for placement interviews through mock interview techniques and make every effort to invite best names of the industry for oncampus placement interviews. “Despite bad market condition and depressing global economy, Jaipuria Noida, has witnessed a big jump in terms of average package and better profile,” informs Anup K. Singh, Director of Jaipuria Noida.
But don’t presume her interview was a cake walk. On the contrary, it was very grilling and she had to face four rounds of interviews. She did her internship in finance and hersummer internship project was to evaluate the validity of a project in Indian Oil Corporation.  It being a hard core finance project required her to doa lot of research and evaluation wok.“Duringall rounds of interview, I was quizzed on every aspect of the project. Since, I had really worked hard during the project, I was able to impress the interview panel which decided to offer me the big ticket,” says Pallavi. She advises her juniors to take internship programme very seriously as this could prove decisive during placement interviews.
Soon, she will be saying adieu to Jaipuria to embark on her career journey. “Apart from the Masti and Dhamaal of campus life, I am going to miss the excellent teaching faculty. They are always eager to help out students and solve their problems,” says Pallavi getting nostalgic about the days spent at campus.
Pallavi believes that in order to succeed in corporate world, it is an advantage to specialize in either marketing or finance. “But, even if you have decided to specialize in other subjects, just pay full attention to it and never adopt chalta hai attitude,” cautions Pallavi to her juniors.
She terms her two years at Jaipuria Noida as a roller coaster ride. “I really enjoyed my two years and it was great learning experience,” says Pallavi. Well, her journey in real corporate world is about to begin, and she can’t wait to embark on her voyage.

Paridhi Nigam , 2010-12 Batch – “ Jaipuria, Noida Helped Me realign My Journalistic Skills Towards Management, Thus Making What I Learn In Journalism, Relevant To The Corporate Sector ”

There are many who realise they can do better in life, and yet choose to carry on doing whatever is it that they do. Paridhi Nigam is not one of them. The day she realised that she did not want to be a journalist – she did not want to be the person asking questions, but the one answering them – she decided to enter the world of management. She chose Jaipuria ,Noida to align her skills to this new found goal.
“During journalism, I had the opportunity of interviewing several celebrities. This was a huge confidence booster. But I needed a top-notch B-school like Jaipuria, Noida to help me align my journalistic skills towards management. The faculty at Jaipuria, Noida guided me quite well on the kind of managerial skills that I needed to enhance. Journalism is a totally different ball-game as compared to management, and Jaipuria, Noida helped me figure this out. ‘Supportive’ and ‘co-operative’ are understatements for the faculty at Jaipuria, Noida. You can walk up to any faculty member of Jaipuria, Noida and ask them the most basic questions with the full confidence of being taken seriously.”
Paridhi was able to crack one of the most sought after profiles in Jaipuria, Noida. About a month back, she was picked up by Mancer Consulting – one of the best known recruitment consulting firms in the country providing ‘across the spectrum’ recruitment services to their clients – as a Management Trainee in the IT- team. Once she completes 6 months of service, she will be promoted to the role of a Management Consultant.
Paridhi believes it is her strong small-town roots from Unnao – a small town near Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh – and the corporate alignment provided by Jaipuria, Noida, that has helped her beat the competition, and get this far.
“Today I understand why I was the only one shortlisted from Jaipuria, Noida amongst a dozen who applied for the position. It needs a different kind of confidence when 90% of your work is to speak to candidates about their JD, to figure out if they are the right choice for the defined profile. This job also requires you to grasp the nitty-gritty of a completely new domain very quickly, something which is bread-and-butter for a journalist. I remember being asked in my interview, as to how will I cope with new technology for which we will be recruiting for our clients. My answer was ‘learning is the first step for everything’. In essence, that is what I learnt at Jaipuria, Noida.
Paridhi believes that a management student has the opportunity – and should be involved – in the co-curricular events that Jaipuria, Noida has to offer.  She feels that Jaipuria, Noida provides its students with a fairly enjoyable campus life, but when it comes to discipline and the enhancement of learning, nothing is taken lightly.

Alumni Speak Jaipuria Noida

Anant Chaturvedi , 2010-12 Batch – Life at Jaipuria Noida “Networking is my Life”

“I consider myself really lucky” says Anant Chaturvedi, who is yet to attend his PGDM Jaipuria convocation and has already bagged his dream job as Executive – Campus Relations, at India HR Network, Noida.
Hailing from the princely state of Jodhpur, Anant was sceptical pursuing CA along with his Bcom (in Jodhpur) which seemed to be a popular trend among his friends at that time. Instead, he chose to follow what he terms as his ‘networking interests’ and started to work in the field of marketing alongside his graduation.
‘I’ve always been good around people’—holds for Anant true, ashe has scores of friends and acquaintances from all walks of life to boast of (a great sales and marketing skill). Interestingly, his gift of gab also landed him his first job with a FM radio station in Jodhpur during his Bcom days. Anant, being a frequent caller at that particular radio station, soon chatted up to become friends with the RJ. That RJ then went on to invite Anant to visit his radio station. A visit turned into a job-offer, as the radio station soon beckoned him to join their marketing team. Not only that, in the next few months Anant went on to manage the marketing efforts of 3 other radio stations and a Cinema hall around Jodhpur region.
A self-professed way-wanderer, Anant went on to seek the guidance of his elder brother to apply for his PGDM degree. Subsequent to scoring a decent 80 percentile in his MAT, he chose Jaipuria Noida as a better option over other Universities. Not only had he heard about its reputation, he also knew that the faculty there was superb.
Jaipuria-Noida — “Here I come”
Along with studies, life at Jaipuria was lots of masti and lots of fun! Of course the regimen of a fixed schedule and classes makes the student what they are, but for Anant, the entire journey meant earning a degree and a higher degree of relationship making.
Poised with confidence, he adjusted well to life in Delhi and campus life in general. Today, he keeps in touch with almost all his friends, through the popular social networking site, Facebook.
Internship
Anant went on to do his internship with retail brand, Provogue.
Passing-Out
Executive, Campus-Relations, India HR Network, is Anant’s current designation. As the title suggests he is instrumental in ice-breaking through new relationships at college campuses and getting to sign on Btech students for placements across different companies.
And the ‘icing on the cake’ for Anant is – he can steal a visit to his Jaipuria campus once in a while (because his office is in Noida itself) and meet his Kanchan ma’am for a quick hello!
