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.

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!

FACULTY Speaks Jaipuria Noida

“Finance is all about picking up a pen and paper, and crunching numbers. At Jaipuria, Noida we ensure that an MBA in Finance is never scared of numbers.” Says Prof. Anurag Singh, Faculty – Finance, Jaipuria, Noida

If one were to compress the life and times of Professor Anurag Singh, a core faculty member of Jaipuria, Noida, into one line, it would be ‘tough times don’t last, tough men do’. Professor Singh did not start out as an academician, destiny brought him to it.
“Finance is a part of our DNA. Whether you are taking an interview or giving one, whether you are a dancer or an artist, at the end of the day you need to know how much is it that you are making; whether that’s ok? Whether it’ll take care of your current needs and the needs in the near future? how much is it in comparison to others? Right or wrong, everyone has the knack of dealing with numbers. Its only when you study Finance in a structured fashion in B-schools like Jaipuria, Noida, with a purpose of excelling, it becomes demanding.”
Born in a family of army officers, little Anurag Singh traversed the length and breadth of India during his school days, studying in schools wherever his dad was posted. After his BSc from the Panjab University, Chandigarh, he did give the Army a shot, but destiny had other plans for him. He enrolled simultaneously for the MBA and CA programs.
“I did a lot of bank audits and statutory audits for quite a few big firms and banks, during my CA articleship, in Orissa. This turned accountancy and taxation into my strong points. The first thing that I tell my students at Jaipuria, Noida is that in finance, you can never be scared of numbers. Financial options, products and investment options keep on multiplying. Few of them give you good results and few don’t. Turn financial literacy into a habit at Jaipuria, Noida. In finance you cannot be just ok; you cannot just survive or be mediocre. You have to work really hard and keep yourself updated; do not free yourself of numbers.”
Young Anurag Singh picked up his first job in Solan, Himachal Pradesh, with an engineering and construction firm by the name of Amar Promoters Pvt Ltd Solan. After 3 years in this profile he moved to Delhi with Career Launchers. He began taking assignments with various colleges as visiting faculty, and was eventually picked up by Delhi School of Professional Studies as a regular; a profile which he held for 5 years. Today, he teaches Strategic Financial Mgt and International Financial Mgt at Jaipuria, Noida.
“The best and worst thing about the Finance-scenario is that it keeps on changing, and therefore market demand for people in Finance is always good, especially if you are from a B-school like Jaipuria, Noida. Attrition is very less in Finance; just like people don’t change their doctors, they don’t change their financiers. It’s because it takes a lot of time to understand the business environment and also because you are dealing in something very confidential. The number of opportunities in the finance sector has multiplied manifolds. There is no dearth of jobs, just dearth of quality manpower.”
Apart from his regular teaching assignments at Jaipuria, Noida, Professor Anurag Singh, has also conducted numerous MDP (Management Development Programmes) on behalf of Jaipuria, Noida for Managers of various banks, and concerns like Maruti-Suzuki and Tata Motors.
“It’s a platform where I pass on the latest in the areas of finance – what you have to know, what you can avoid, taxation, how to plan your taxes within the provisions of the law of the land, claiming valid deductions… and doing all this without having to pay a hefty sum to a CA. Such programmes are very, very welcome in the corporate world. My teaching methodology in the classrooms of Jaipuria, Noida and outside is pretty much white board calculations. I hardly use PPT’s in Jaipuria, Noida since Finance is more about application of concepts… not really much of theory. Every situation is a case an every case has to be broken down into small pieces to bring home a point. As I tell my students in Jaipuria, Noida – Finance, after all, is about picking up a pen and paper, and crunching numbers.”

Jaipuria Noida Placement Update

“With numerous companies coming to Jaipuria Noida for recruitment, we were ably guided by our faculty and staff throughout the placement process. It was amazing!”

The PGDM class of 2012 recently passed out of Jaipuria-Noida thus completing its tough schedule and curriculum. It has been an experience of a lifetime for the passing out batch and, a sad goodbye too.
For Raghavendra Singh, who studied Finance, Jaipuria delivered on great expectations for him. He was happy taking away something unique and unforgettable, from the exotic campus of Jaipuria, to the diverse activities; there was so much to absorb that he wished to stay over a longer period of time to digest everything.
When asked what Raghavendra would miss the most in Jaipuria, we were pleasantly surprised to know, that it was not the cultural fests, or the Finance clubs, not even his friends, but the Volley Ball courts that would be greatly missed.
Oh yes, the everlasting charm of the volleyball court (sighs Raghavendra!). In love with the sport, he never wasted a minute, in between his classes (15 minute break times) or even the lunch break – as he and his friends would always head out to the court to grab a few high lunges at the ball.
Before embarking on the PGDM program, Raghavendra, like scores of other aspirants, had appeared for his CAT, and took interviews at various colleges. But, Jaipuria Institute of Management Studies, he found the best. Not only it was near to his place in Noida, it also had a superb talked about Finance Faculty. As he talked to his other friends and faculty members, Raghavendra was more than convinced of Jaipuria being a good place for his higher studies.
He reminisces of his days spent with his hostel friends, when he’d take a lunch-box full of breakfast, which would be soon devoured by his hungry friends.  Active in sports, Raghavendra had a TT gang, a Cricket gang and Volleyball gang of course, wherein they’d regularly play matches with each other.
On the study front, the Mentor program was particularly good, where 4-5 students were assigned to a mentor. The mentor acted as a friend, philosopher, and guide to the students. He/she would provide guidance on subjects that students would find tough, help in the interview process, conduct mock GD’s and mock interviews to prepare students. The plus point being that a mentor worked as a perfect sounding board for students under their aegis.
For Raghavendra, the end of PGDM as a class unit meant having enjoyed every opportunity of the PGDM journey.  He scored a fine balance between his studies, sports, and various extra-curricular in Jaipuria. He was an active member of the Cultural club, Book Club and helped organise the Freshers’ Party and Dance.
Armed with a Tax consultant position with Deloitte now, his advice to all the aspiring business students is to make everyday better than the one before. He tells them to participate in all types of debates, clubs and cultural activities to have a well rounded-grooming.
