It was a month or two before I was searching for a job or an internship after my graduation and mailed everyone my resume for the same and after that I got many calls but nothing suited my requirements. As I used to get too many calls, I ignored a few and then there was this number I got a call from my true caller which showed “Parvathy” as I didn’t knew any Parvathy, I rejected the call. Then in evening when I was lying in bed after lunch in my lazy vacation, I again got that call and this time I received and it was Parvathy Mam for the internship of bms.co.in. I woke up immediately “Yes mam shadab here … yes yes I applied for the internship”. And she explained about what is the internship all about. I was crazy when I was confirmed to work with bms.co.in. I agreed to everything and started my internship here from 15th June as I remember the date.
She added me to the group where I met a lot of new interns enthusiastic about their jobs and this motivated me more for the job. All things was explained and all queries was answered by Parvathy mam. And the internship started. A lot of information was shared to us by Parvathy mam about digital marketing and social media marketing which helped me learn a lot. I became aware of many social media sites which I didn’t knew like digg and pinterest. I was eager to learn a lot of new things, work in a friendly environment as there was no boss to shout but a mentor to guide us on our mistakes.
There was a lot of mistakes I did in starting but my every mistake was corrected and a complete guidance was given so that it won’t be repeated again. Everything about the bms.co.in was made transparent to all the interns and was given opportunity to give ideas for any addition in the website.
Overall it was a great experience to work with sweet mentors and friendly environment with no forceful targets as people always worry about the internship targets, timings etc. And yeah I really learned a lot from this internship if I was not doing MBA I would love to join it as a full time job here in bms.co.in.
