Cut off from the world ....... almost
The ISB Domain has not been working for more than 12 hours now and all of us feel like we are cutoff from the world and from each other. Nothing seems to be working ......... which basically means that email is not working. Its funny how dependent we are on email to communicate with each other ........... now we have to go back to the age old methods of phones, messages, etc for communication!!!! This is a disaster ............... at least till the IT guys fix whatever problem it is!
On the bright side, I did finish quite a bit of work, did my readings and went to a party!
Let the games begin
Today was the deadline for applying to BCG - India operations. Personally, I think that this is the second most coveted job on campus - after McK! So this should officially be the beginning of the placement fever ...... I just hope it ends with oodles of joy for everyone on campus!
Term 6 is coming to an end and so is this year ........ really a roller coaster ride!! I think the one thing that I really missed when I came back from the US was that I didnt have a lot of friends who go a long way back. I had lost touch with everyone who were from college and the ones who I was still in touch with were out of the country. I think that is one thing that ISB has given me in this one year ............ a few great friends and a lot of good friends!! As for the job, I am sure if we have made it till here, we will shine ahead too ;)
I am alive ....... I really am!!!
The placement fever has begun in full swing on campus. People are working on their resumes at all times of the day and night, be it in the cafe, the class room and even at parties!! Everything else seems to have taken a back seat - no one cares about their assignments, projects, exams, etc. Like someone told me, 'The one reason why most of us joined ISB is now here!'. So I have decided to religiously track the placement season - may be in retrospect I might find it funny......
BTW, for the uninitiated, DB and Goldman have already finished their recruitments and the deadlines for BCG, McK are fast coming up ...... Unfortunately for me, I havent found the right job to apply as yet. The consulting companies are very interesting and I would love to work there but so would 417 other people on campus ......... so lets see what comes out of the hat!!!
