Thanks to the Jaipuria Jaipur faculty, i got three promotions in a short span of two years in info edge India limited

Nitin Kalani is undoubtedly the most active alumnus of Jaipuria Jaipur. Ever since passing out of a couple of years ago, he has been in constant touch with his seniors, batch-mates and juniors from Jaipuria Jaipur and has hardly missed out on an alumni meet.
“I actually enjoy being active on social media as well as hanging out with my colleagues. It is quite nice that it is a part of my job now as the President of the Alumni Association of Jaipuria
Jaipur,” Nitin says with a smile.
Nitin’s batch-mates as well as teachers from Jaipuria Jaipur remember him as someone who always gave a 100% to whatever he did. No wonder, then, that in a short span of 2 years, Nitin Kalani has seen three promotions in Info Edge India Limited.
“I joined Info Edge as a Senior Executive, and was promoted to Assistant Manager, then Deputy Manager, and am currently working as a Manager – Corporate Sales.
Nitin gives the credit or his steep rise up the corporate ladder to the liberal learning methods employed by the fantastic faculty of Jaipuria Jaipur.
“Whatever I’ve learnt in my 2 years at Jaipuria Jaipur still helps me face the challenges and clear the hurdles in my professional as well as personal life, on a daily basis. The beautiful infrastructure and a fantastic set of batch-mates – who brought in their unique talents and culture from different parts of country – provided a great learning atmosphere. The corporate communications and marketing classes were the ones which I enjoyed the most, especially the live case studies.”
Nitin says that he misses Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur for more than one reason -the beautiful location with scenic views, the classrooms and the lecture theatres at Jaipuria Jaipur, equipped with the latest computers and projectors.
“What I miss the most is the always-ready-to-help, world class faculty of Jaipuria Jaipur. It includes senior professionals with a rich industrial background, and guest lecturers from acrossIndia. We learnt a lot from the regular seminars, and we also had the opportunity of learning in the field through the renowned Jaipuria Institute of Management corporate interface.”
He advises the incoming batches of Jaipuria Jaipur to enjoy the ‘Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur experience’. He is confident that just like him, students who are able to avail of the ample theoretical, practical and field knowledge at Jaipuria Jaipur will not only be able to cope with the present corporate challenges, but will actually excel.

Jaipuria Lucknow Jaipuria Lucknow Placement Update STUDENT Speaks

“However far-fetched, wild, and unique your idea might be, Jaipuria, Lucknow will always encourage you.”

The interviewing process of TVS Motors was known be rather exhaustive. Gagandeep knew that Jaipuria Lucknow was one of the few B-schools in India, which dedicated a substantive part of its second year in preparing its students for placement interviews; still he could not get rid of his apprehensiveness.
“In the second year at Jaipuria Lucknow, for 2 hours every day without fail, we would do a complete post-mortem of all national dailies. Expectedly, the first few rounds of the TVS Motors interview simply revolved around general awareness, quants, aptitude and reasoning. Even in the final round where we had a face-to-face interview, the stress was quite a lot on analysis of current events. The impetus of the initial rounds carried me through the situation appreciation test, and the GD, where we had to explain and stand-by our reactions to the situation. The interviewing Officer, Mr Ramalingam, was a psychologist and had been assessing the mental attributes of people for the last 30 years, and knew what he was looking for in prospective employees.”
With schooling in Himachal Pradesh and Birla Vidyamandir in Nainital, Gagandeep has been a hosteller for as long as he can remember. After hisBTech in Computer Sciencefrom Amity, Noida, he decided to top-off his education with a PGDM in Marketing and Finance from Jaipuria Lucknow.
“However far-fetched, wild, and unique your idea; Jaipuria,Lucknow will always encourage you. My first year Internship at IFFCO fertilizers, was a revelation. My communication skills had undergone a complete transformation in Jaipuria, Lucknow.I was to carry out a survey on three different aspects. Firstly, the strategy for the existing products; secondly, upcoming products in the fertiliser market, and lastly use of technology in the industry. Obviously I had to create three separate questionnaires and thereafter interview DGM’s of 10 competing fertiliser companies. Not only did I manage to complete the task, but even today I’m in touch with most of the DGM’s.”
Gagandeep joined TVS Motors on the 17th of May 2012, and is currently undergoing the orientation programme. He observes that TVS lives up to its tag of being an employee-centric organisation.
Jaipuria Lucknow was, is, and will always remain the knowledge centre for me; a place where you can start anything. I remember how our batch, encouraged by Reena Ma’am, decided to start classes for underprivileged children. We descended on the nearby slums, encouraging dwellers to allow their children to study. In out after-class hours of Jaipuria, Lucknow, we taught these kids. We even arranged for their pick and drop, and their meals at Jaipuria, Lucknow as well, and when the time came to move on we selected a motivated bunch from our junior batch to keep this fire burning.”

An Insight on Consumer Behaviour

As a part of Jaipuria Institute of Management’s strong industry interface programme, Mr. Vishal Khanna, Marketing Manager at Reliance Infocom, shared his expert knowledge of consumer behaviour with students and faculty at the Jaipuria Noida campus. The event was set in the backdrop of the recent placement of two interns from Jaipuria Noida with Reliance Infocom for the summer training programme.
Showing keen insight into the consumer’s decision-making process, Mr. Khanna took the future managers from Jaipuria Noida through the entire consumer behaviour process. This included how a consumer decides onproduct specifications, how he searches for suppliers, seeks proposal solicitation, carries out selection and finally, carries out post-purchase evaluation.
Mr. Khanna made his talk interesting by sharing many real life situations faced by him and his company with the students of Jaipuria Noida. “The actual study of consumer behaviour begins only when the consumer seeks proposal solicitation. With time, consumer behaviour has become a very complex process that is highly researched, and is critical for the success of a product and a company,” he said.
In an interactive way, Mr. Khanna discussed a number of case studies with the youngsters of Jaipuria Noida, which showed how consumer behaviour varied from department to department even within the same organisation.
“There are a number of reasons for this. Some of these are: difference in perceptions of departments involved, conflict – technical versus commercial, cost reduction versusincreasing efficiency – which is pretty much Finance versus HR. The role of individuals also has a part to play in consumer behaviour.”
Mr. Khanna’s talk covered all aspects of consumer behaviour, from the reasons behind different buying behaviour for same product, to challenges faced in selling products to the corporate buyer as well as the retail customer. He brought out various examples of how companies try to overcome these challenges, particularly through communications aimed at the target consumer. Step by step, Mr. Khanna took the aspiring managers at Jaipuria Noida through the process of the creation and implementation of a ‘Brand Recall Strategy.’
“By the time you pass out from Jaipuria Noida, you will know that the one who knows his consumer, and has studied the nature and requirements of his consumer well, is most likely to win the deal,” concluded Mr. Vishal Khanna, Marketing Manager, Reliance Infocom.
“I feel absolutely in touch with the industry now,” said Mohammed of the 2011-13 batch of Jaipuria Noida. “Thanks to our faculty at Jaipuria, we knew most of the terminology used by Mr. Vishal Khanna, and were able to make sense of what he was saying. It was great to learn from the experience of such a senior manager at Reliance Infocom.”
With two of their peers placed with Reliance Infocom this year for summer internships and the valuable industry interface with Mr. Vishal Khanna, students of Jaipuria Noida feel that this is just the beginning of a long-term relationship between Jaipuria Noida and Reliance Infocom.

Jaipuria Jaipur Placement Update

"The faculty at Jaipuria Jaipur ensured that I got a good placement by keeping me motivated to deliver my best", says Nitish Khanna

Everyone who knows Nitesh Khanna is celebrating his entry into the corporate world. Nitesh has been successfully placed with the Oriental Bank of Commerce on-campus at Jaipuria Jaipur. His designation is that of a Specialist Officer, Marketing, and he will be starting his career with Oriental Bank of Commerce on the 30th of July 2012. Nitesh feels that had it not been for the support of the great faculty at Jaipuria Jaipur, he could not have come this far.
“The placement season in Jaipuria begins in November. Quite a few of my batch-mates were placed in the first month itself, but I wasn’t. Had I been in any other B-school, I would have been easily demotivated, but thanks to the support and faith the faculty at Jaipuria Jaipur had in me, I finally cracked Oriental Bank of Commerce in April 2012. During these 5 months, they never allowed me to be demotivated. I owe this fantastic profile especially to Professor Anvay Bhargava, the placement co-ordinator, and also Professor Sheenu Jain, who motivated me continuously and did not let me lose my positive frame of mind.”
Nitesh credits the Placement Cell of Jaipuria Jaipurfor being super-active right from the beginning of the session. They organised ‘mock’ GDs and interviews, personality development programmes and sessions on interview techniqueswith delegates from various institutes. Apart from that, he feels that the numerous events as well as the overall environment at Jaipuria Jaipur make learning very easy.
“Our annual fest, Abhyudaya, provides students of Jaipuria Jaipur with a tremendous opportunity to put into practice all that we learn in our classrooms. This time too, Abhyudaya was a grand success. I had the fantastic opportunity to organise two events and they came off really well, which was a great confidence booster for me.”
Nitesh is now looking forward to put all his learning at Jaipuria Jaipur to good use at the Oriental Bank of Commerce.

What matters most during the placement process is your attitude. At Jaipuria institute of management Jaipur, it is this attitude that is cultivated.

Anuj Singh, who specialised in Marketing as a part of the 2010-12 batch of Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur, was placed on-campus with the Indian Bank as Assistant Manager Marketing. He feels that sustained effort by the faculty and discussions and debates with batch mates from varied backgrounds at Jaipuria Jaipur is what helped him get through.
“The placement process has three major parts – written tests, group discussions and panel interview or personal interview. At the Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur, we were put through a series ofindividual activity programme, numerous panel and one-on-one interviews and group activities like group discussions and group performances, to ensure that we made it. The faculty at Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur is fantastic! Not only do they help you work on your weaknesses, but guide youon how to use your individual strengths and skills to the best advantage.”
Anuj is of the opinion that while the placement system at Jaipuria Jaipur takes care to prepare one mentally for the interviews, ‘honesty is the best policy’ would be the best approach when being interviewed. He advises his juniors at Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur to be especially careful about not speaking unnecessarily during the group discussion.
“Speak for impact in the GDs,” is Anuj’s message to the current students at Jaipuria Jaipur. “A lot of people simply try to talk as much as they can during GDs, without making much impact; you only stand to lose by doing that. Go in with a positive mind-set. If there’s one thing that matters the most during the placement process, it’s your attitude. At Jaipuria Institute of Management Jaipur, more than anything else, it is this attitude that is cultivated.”
Anuj is confident that this winning attitude developed at Jaipuria Jaipur, will help him achieve even greater heights in the corporate world.

Ienjoyed every sphere of life at Jaipuria Jaipur

For Vibhor Pareek, currently an assistant manager (liabilities) at IDBI Bank, Kota branch, an alumnus of the 2-year full time Post Graduate Diploma in Management at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Jaipur, life at Jaipuria Jaipur threw up one lesson after another. Vibhor fondly remembers his teachers and peers; whom he terms as ‘great’ and says they made his journey at Jaipuria memorable. “I am extremely happy and proud to know about Jaipuria’s progress. As a part of the first batch, the struggle had its own element of fun element and was a unique opportunity for training,” says Vibhor.
As management students at Jaipuria Jaipur, he and his classmates had access to reading material from foreign authors, which students from other schools did not. About his days at Jaipuria Jaipur, Vibhor says, “Each and every one of us was placed really well. I have enjoyed every sphere of life and I cherish those moments as we had amazing visiting faculty.”  He particularly feels that the principles of human resources and organizational behaviour which he learnt at Jaipuria Jaipur were very useful and so was his summer training at UTI Mumbai (arranged by Jaipuria Jaipur).
Abhyudaya, a popular Inter-College Annual Fest at Jaipuria Jaipur taught him to rise to the occasion. The invigorating festival gave him an opportunity to imbibe knowledge from corporate honchos and industry analysts. “This management festival provides a real-life learning platform to the students of Jaipuria Jaipur as they are involved in it right from planning to execution. The event gives them an opportunity to build up the strength, creativity, skills and all that they need to scale great heights,” says Vibhor. Cases, classes, group assignments and deadlines were all important aspects of the course. “There is enough on campus to keep everyone engaged; still you never feel tired and, in fact, you yearn for more,” says Vibhor.
Vibhor’s grounding in Jaipuria Jaipur stood him in good stead in his professional life as well. “The journey in terms of my career has been very fulfilling. The majority of the credit goes to Jaipuria Jaipur. The teaching, training, exposure and guidance at Jaipuria Jaipur created an accelerated growth graph. I have handled corporate banking as well and now am in liabilities,” he says. No wonder the key learnings and take-aways from his 2-year stint at Jaipuria Jaipur are integrity and honesty in professional life, understanding HR & organisational management and learning from mistakes and failures. He cherishes the time spent with his batch-mates at Jaipuria Jaipur. “I do stay in touch with about 4-5 people via social networking and would love to be in touch with many more but life’s busy nowadays and I don’t get time,” he adds. Coming from an alumnus, these words do indeed speak volumes about Jaipuria Jaipur.

FACULTY Speaks Jaipuria Indore

Jaipuria Indore will help you discover how you are built, and help you learn how to play to your strengths,” says, Professor Jagdish Bhagwat, Faculty – Operations, Jaipuria Indore

The first thing that impresses you about Prof. Jagdish Bhagwat is that he has an almost philosophical and karmic view about life in Jaipuria Indore.
“Life is a ‘Learn – Earn – Return’ cycle. I believe that every individual in the first phase of his life learns from society. In the next phase, he needs to earn in order to support his family. Finally, at a later stage in his career, an individual should return, or give back, to society. Academics is probably the most noble way of returning to society.”
A Metallurgical Engineer from MNIT, Jaipur, and an MBA from IMS – DAVV, Indore, Professor Jagdish Bhagwat has accumulated 14 years of industrial experience in Indian & foreign steel plants, having worked with Kalyani Carpenter Special Steels Ltd., Pune, Qatar Steel Company Limited, Qatar, ShriIshar Alloy Steels Limited, Indore, and Indore Steel & Iron Mills Limited, Indore. He has also been a part of the management of steel plant projects in Germany and Argentina. His industrial experience covers almost the entire gamut of operations from production management to process control, quality control, product development and customer services departments.
“Prior to Jaipuria Indore, I’ve been with numerous educational institutions over a period of 10 years. There are vast differences between theoretical practices taught in classrooms and actual practices followed in industry. My indian and international experience helps me in educating students about different business practices followed around the world and in managing the cultural differences for global businesses. I try to bring in complicated business situations to my classroom which provides an insight to students about contemporary business practices, and helps students analyse them and develop their solutions.”
Prof. Bhagwat has been a part of the faculty at leading business schools like IBS Ahmedabad, ICFAI University Dehradun, IBS Indore, Pioneer Institute of Professional Studies Indore, and Maharaja Ranjit Singh College Indore. He has been a guest faculty member with Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, Indore chapter, PT education Indore, and Institute of Management Studies Indore. To his credit, he has organised numerous national conferences, presented research papers, conducted Management Development Programmes for Airtel – Jaipur, and TATA International Limited – Dewas.  He teaches Operations Management, Quantitative Techniques, Business Research, and Marketing Management at Jaipuria Indore.
“Operations management is an integral part of the manufacturing and service industry. The success of any business depends upon efficiently & effectively managing operations. In today’s complex business situations, management executives are required to take conscious business decisions based on past data. Quantitative techniques will help an executive in taking better decisions after a thorough analysis of all facts and facets.”
Professor Bhagwat advises his students at Jaipuria Indore to listen to their inner voice and carry out a self-assessment.
“Operations has immense potential for students who love working with numbers, while students who are extroverted by nature should focus on the nuances of Marketing. Jaipuria Indore will help you discover how you are built, and you should learn to play to your strengths.”
