Hmmm....I guess this has been due for some time....
The placement season went as expected.....with ofcourse a brilliant blunder from me....
I thought I played the game quite well....but ofcourse...As it is did not receive any I-Banking shortlists....so banking it had to be.....wanted a job by the end of day one...had it with one of the largest banks in the world....at a relatively high level....paying me awesome money.....the only catch....it is in consumer banking....
Day 2.....went all out....had a few interesting interviews....was at my arrogant best.....landed up a job in corporate banking....with the fastest growing Indian private sector bank.....
as per the process students have to sign the form twice....one showing willingness to receive an offer....second to accept the offer....each student could "receive" two offers and "accept" one.....but for an offer to count the student should have signed the willingness to recieve offer....Now the first bank was in a hurry to leave....so i did not sign my willingness to receive the offer....though they left the offer with placement office while leaving.....so "technically".....it did not count as one of my offers....though really i had a job in hand......after day2.....i thought i had two offers and was out of the process....though "technically" i could have attended interviews on day 3 as well.......as it is....a few second rung I-Banks came on day 3.....and would u believe it....had walk-ins.....and I did not go for any thinking I had two offers......so went my "I-banking-job-from-the-campus dreams"
Anyways...for the job.....i after many delibrations...chose the second job....because "that is what I want to do"....despite the charm of the brand, money and a higher position....I painfully let go of the first offer.....though i have heard their offer is still valid....
