Share a few learnings from Apeejay and how are those helping you in your new job profile?

Apeejay alongwith its all staff has always been like my supporting system – whether it’s studying there or getting a placement from there or all the participation I had been involved in. I had one of the best experiences and moments while being there.

I wish to be a way ahead from where I am now in the coming years and make a good name in the company itself. 

Do you miss college? What has been the most memorable memory for you from Apeejay?

I miss my college life each day more. Almost all the moments were memorable ones but the most memorable one was our girls team winning the modeling show while enlightening the audience about the real girl power. 

How did you prepare yourself for this job role? Does this align with  your career aspirations?

I worked hard as I participated in almost every activity being done in the college to enhance my confidence and communication skills. These really helped me to crack the interview along with maintaining a very good score in academics. 

Where do you see yourself in the coming five years?

I see myself getting more career success in the next few years.
