Pranjal, currently pursuing B.Tech. in BSBE at IIT Kanpur, shares his expectations from Internshala In-office Internship.<\/em><\/p>\n

While at college, one of\u00a0the most common phrases that we hear from most of our seniors is –\u00a0Dude, anyhow get an intern!\u00a0<\/i>But dear well-wishers usually forget to tell <\/i>the most important thing – how?\u00a0<\/i>For the first two semesters in the college, I struggled to figure out the actual meaning of this word –\u00a0intern<\/em>. <\/i>And by the time I understood it, my batch-mates were already getting hired for internships. Soon I realized the importance of internship for a student, and started to look for one. Like most of the college students, I was confused – In what field should I do an internship?<\/em>\u00a0But, little I knew that in a couple of days, I would \u00a0be interning with India’s leading internship portal– Internshala.<\/p>\n

So, one day my senior introduced me to this website–\u00a0<\/span>internshala.com–,<\/em>\u00a0and asked me to upload my resume on it. I was amazed by the large number of internship options available on it. I was about to make and upload my resume, when I saw the tab of We are hiring<\/em>! below the logo. I clicked on it and that one click changed my Facebook status from \u201cLives in-Kanpur\u201d to \u201cLives in-Gurgaon\u201d in next 24 hours. Yes, I applied for a winter internship at <\/span>Internshala\u00a0and I got one. I asked for one month in-office winter internship and continued campus-internship after that, and to my surprise, they agreed to it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank God!\u00a0Now I\u2019ll finally\u00a0be able to pay the bills of canteen, Dhobi<\/em> and debts of friends.<\/p>\n

And this way, not only I got a great internship from which I hope to learn a lot and experience a new phase of life, but also got an opportunity to work with a great team – a team of engineers and entrepreneurs – which through its hard-work and sincere efforts, created an easy platform for getting internships. Hoping to learn new aspects of business and marketing at each moment of working with Internshala<\/em>, I arrived at the Gurgaon office. First day here in the office was great and full of surprises, and I am quite sure that this company will never cease to amaze me in the coming days. From the first day itself, not only I got to learn the basics of entrepreneurship but also got a taste of the corporate world. I am thankful to whole Internshala team for this. Voluntarily, I came here to work; fortunately, I was inspired by this team; and steadily, we’ll work together to make history.<\/p>\n
