Freshers Party and committee Selection

Now comes the Freshers day 

It started with the hours of time dedicated to make up ourselves specially the girls ... and it started at 8 pm and ended at 1 am.

It revealed the real faces of the seniors and juniors 

The following are the events that took place in the Freshers party 

  • Paper couple dance 
  • D.J remix and dancing with hearts and souls
  • Dances for the latest songs with different themes like bhojpuri spiderman , rhymes
  • Then a Ramp walk which was a curtain raiser for the models inside us 
  • Skits where girls played the boy role and vice verse 
  • Special Dance performance by the seniors 
  • MR. And Miss Fresher
  • Askal Whiskal Kiskal Drinking competition between juniors and seniors 


Loads of fun which words cannot explain joined with delicious food and b**z* 


The fun thing is juniors have to pair up with seniors to enter the freshers party . Some used Brains and some used CCD  and some created ways creatively which reduced the tonnes of gap between both the batches.


And after all the fun here comes the student Committee Selections 


The various committees present in MHRM are 

Placecom - which takes care of placements right from resumes to internships and final placements 

Acadcom - which takes care of guest lectures, books , extra material resources 

Adcom - Which takes care of the admissions 

Media & PR - which takes care of the pagalguy, promotion and website and interaction with outside world right from news paper to future aspirants 

Cultcom - which takes care of the cultural activities and KHROM club and PEOPLE TREE newsletter



P.S: 2-3 guys haven't showed interested in committees and 2-3 guys backed out of committees after getting selected ... Reasons are crazy .. Some are disgusted with selection method and some are disappointed with poor selection and some more are vexed up with moron senior domination. Everything happens afterall we are humans...!!!


Now itz time to explore the IIT KGP societies and committees 

The list is endless but still would like to write a few 

  • AIESEC worlds largest student community 
  • Telugu , English ,Hindi , Bengali Dramatics society 
  • Music society 
  • Debating Society 
  • Technology Dance Society 
  • Vivekananda Social Service Community 
  • CRY child rights 
Name a community you will find one here.

Except the Bengali Dramatics Society everything mentioned above has a representative from MHRM ... Kudos we are enthusiastic people . Cannot spend life sitting in rooms and Facebooking all the time but to explore the opportunities to come in par with BTECHians Dominated IITs .. We are here to make our impressions

Day 1 to Orientation by Seniors

Now comes the First day In IIT Kharagpur 

Entered the campus late night and had a informal meet with all the classmates of the new batch. We are allotted one of the latest halls among the 22 halls of residence in IIT with a dual room share and a attached bathroom resembling the Apartment architecture.







The first day started with the introductory seminar for all the PG students in the auditorium by the dean and heads of different departments and we were asked to move to a different auditorium for the registration process which is just 1 km away from the present location. Long lines to stand and hot sun welcomed us to the IIT.




 After registration which ended in the late afternoon all of us rested our poor souls for a sleep followed by a delicious dinner ( being the first day ) in the night. 

P.S:Food is not too good nor too bad all the stay we had till now for the past 2 months . After all 9000 bucks for 6 months 



Orientation by seniors 

Here comes the tough and interesting part of the newbiees in to IIT 
The orientation classes by the seniors lasted for 10 days with every day a new event .

1.Treasure hunt in pairs  (girl and a bicycle ) which resulted minimum loss of 2-3 pounds of weight 

P.S:Krishna and his team won this  
2.Business Quiz 

3.Dramatics

4.Ad Design and making 

5.Extempore

6.Anthyakshari 

7.Case study and review of books, Movies 

P.S: Seniors noted almost each and every point of juniors and graded them accordingly for committee selection 

Besides this we also had introductory speeches from seniors of various committees and about the college department and placements 

We came to know about each other in the very early 10 days

5 things that business students must do before they graduate


India has more than 1,500 business schools as of now. Barring the top 50 to 75 colleges, most of the MBA colleges have very little to offer in terms of skills required to meet the demands of the job market.

Since MBA is a professional degree, all we do during MBA should revolve around building a good career for ourselves.
Students must strive to catch up with the industry needs and getting placed well. Here are five tips for Business Grads to focus on in order to make themselves more employable.

1. Brush up your language skills


Communication skills, undoubtedly, play a real important and crucial role in professional life in corporate India. For a fresh MBA graduate, it becomes all the more important from the campus recruitment viewpoint. If you are an MBA student, focus on polishing your communication skills in English and also learn a second language.
It's not a bad idea to join a finishing school to develop your personality, body language, inter-personal and social interaction skills.

2. Develop corporate awareness


What a recruiter likes to see in a candidate is the application orientation. Students in B-school study the concepts of management in their classes but hardly understand how this knowledge can be applied in real business scenario; there is thus a gap in application.
As students, it is imperative to understand what business is all about and how you can contribute to the growth of any organisation. That's because if you can justify how your skills are going to add to the growth of the organisation, then chances are that the interviewer will consider you right-fit to the organisation.

3. Develop team skills


Concentrate on developing leadership skills. Your employer would like to know how effectively you can work in a team and able to manage a group of people.
Wherever you work, you work in teams. NO MAN IS AN ISLAND.
Do not treat your management programme as just another degree you are going to get after two years. Think of it as a skill-enhancing programme. Concentrate on soft skills while pursuing management.

4.Build knowledge


Keep updating and refreshing your knowledge through peer learning. Participate in all kinds of group activities like group case studies, simulations, industry interaction programmes and inter- college level academic and extra-curricular competitions.
Technical knowledge along with good inter personal skills are the key qualities companies look for in a potential candidate. Focus on improving these skills right from the commencement of the course.

5.Carefully select internships and placement



Search for internships while pursuing your course. Your internship is the only opportunity where you can exhibit your skills by translating them in performance. At the same time, you learn about a particular industry and its operations in detail.
Ensure that you select an internship in the same profile or industry you intend to work in future. It helps you justify your knowledge and leverage the internship during an interview.
Select a job / placement irrespective of the designation and salary. Starting career as a sales trainee should not bother you. The job description / job content should be the major consideration.
Going for an MBA programme is itself a very important decision in its own right, if we be a little careful about the things we do and the decisions we make while pursuing a management programme, we can ensure that things go well during the placements.

A Day in life of a KGPian

So every one is actually wondered how is a typical day for a IITian specially KGpian is 
Here we go !

A day in Life of a Kgpian

*A new day dawns with the chirping of the birds and the loud cry of the alarm, followed
by a flurry of activities, some known and some unknown. KGPians should consider
themselves lucky if they manage to grab a quick bite before huffing and puffing their way
to the classes in their bicycle.





*Classes are enjoyable and thought provoking with case studies, presentations and role
plays. KGPians usually get a cup of coffee from NESCAFE to remain all ears to one
lecture after the other. Just when they think that the class has ended, there is a surprise
quiz waiting for them or sometimes a great guest lecture.





*After the grueling day, the students unwind with a cup of hot chai and fried maggi at
TIKKA. The greenery around is so mesmerizing; that it entices them to take a long
stroll along the lush green paths. They also take the heat off by engaging in a game of
basketball or lawn tennis.

*But KGPians never forget that they have an assignment to submit tomorrow, so
they rush back and start working on it, sometimes alone, sometimes as a group. The
brainstorming is at its best when they are having dinner at VEGGIES.





*Few hours into the assignment, they realize that they have to put up a good fight against
their drooping eyelids which makes them rush to CCD for a steaming mug of coffee.

*Finally KGPians return to their rooms and hit off their bed realizing that their day has
come to an end with just a few hours for their day to begin.
