I got selected in L&T power through campus placement after completing my Graduation from Nirma University, Ahmedabad. I worked in business development department of L&T power for 4 years and 11 months. My global exposure involves the interaction with global vendors of energy sectors, corporate partners, consultants and government agencies, which mainly involved SIEMENS, ABB, MHI, SKODA, Schneider, Wartsila, GE, NTPC, MAHEGENCO, GSECL, TCE, Fichtner, EIL, GMR etc. I was interacting and negotiating with different companies simultaneously for the techno commercial offers of different equipment of the power plant including Gas turbine and steam turbine.

This experience helps me to be a confident individual while dealing with the people who are having experience equal to my age.

I will arrange one workshop of CV building and GD/PI/Case, Personality development program for the students to sharpen their interview skills especially by professionals if possible.
I will arrange mock interviews to build up the confidence of the student and work on the area of improvements of all the students.
I will arrange alumni meet wherein our alumni not only shared their experiences vis -a-vis the realities of the corporate life but also help our juniors to make them understand the growing expectation of the corporate world so that students can mould themselves as per the recruiters expectations.
I will be in touch with all the companies throughout the year by sending development news, monthly address of the senior people and festival greetings.
I will try to help every student define his/her career interest through individual expert counselling. This will eventually help me to call companies from whom students get the maximum benefit.
