Leading companies like Google, IBM, Adobe, Microsoft among others are on a hiring spree, and good talent with high qualifications earn a pretty penny, sometimes in the range of Rs. 10 lacs plus.
The workshop begun with students participating in a unique survey that then provides an indicator as to how their personality types play an important role in the selection of their career. Students are then shown how they can map careers in relation to personality types and also counselled on other factors and areas of management that are considered important by top companies. Aside from this, students are also provided digital certificates for successfully completing the workshop that they can then share on platforms such as email, Facebook, LinkedIn and WhatsApp.

Prof. Shyam Nair, an experienced strategic marketing professional trains participants on opportunity identification in careers, preparing successful career-maps and prepare a learning plan to stay abreast of industry changes and improve skills.
Dr. Binu Paul, a PhD in Economics and Head of the Business Analytics program guides students through a highly insightful session on the role and impact of analytics in companies, with focus on statistics, fundamental coding practices and client management, closing with a quick game on how to use data to provide theoretical direction on how to use simple statistical and analytics tools to understand and predict stock market trade indications. While these types of predictions are only indicative and by no means absolute, nonetheless it had the students enthralled on the potential opportunities for business analytics in various fields.
Thus ensued a highly engaging discussion on management and analytics that engaged the trainers and participants alike. Due to a tight workshop schedule, the trainers had to soon end to discussion, much to the displeasure of the participants.
The workshop also received response from the local press, with print coverage across approximately 25 newspapers and five television news channels.
