Updates…
January 11, 07 by BharaniI quit Convergys on January 5th. I moved to MIH Web Private Limited, based in Gurgaon. Last week at Convergys was very memorable mainly due to great bunch of colleagues over there.
Gurgaon is much colder than I expected. Though the place seems to be very advanced with skyscrapers and mega malls, the local transportation sucks. There are hardly any public transporation or auto-rickshaws. Even the shared auto-rickshawas are few in number and carries full-load of passengers. The only option is cycle-rickshaws or cab services (which are very expensive). Should buy my own vehicle soon!
Work is exciting and I am eagerly looking forward for next few months. Lots of action happening at the work place as few product launches are planned in the near future.
More updates later….

Good luck dude… All the “Hindi” you learnt at ISB will come handy now.
Are you coming to Chennai for Ramki’s wedding? Even Kaushik is getting married the same day.
Try to make it.

Bharani: Congrats da. The influence of ISB is amazing. The guy who avoided hostel and travelled 50km everyday for his UG is reading to go to Gurgoan…Super!!!
Reg Job change ..The stat from my school was : 75% of MBA change their 1st post jobs with in 9 months. I did exactly after 9 months(with 1 month Marriage honeymoon holiday during that period!). Mckinsey,BCG,Rolland Berger,Deloitte all lasted less than 6 months. All the shitting in pants and 10 stage interviews and “salary negotiations” looks like “Big Brother” now.
How is the stat reg post MBA job change at ISB? The boom in India and the new opportunities suggests something like 6months average for the 1st job …
