Rahul Gupta- A PGCIM-ESB 2010-11 participant, shares his experiences with us. Rahul did an internship with The World Bank Group, USA right after his MBA and is working with them presently. He has been working with other finance professionals to identify financial and other risks in the Trust Fund business of the World Bank".
He says- "Working in a truly global and diverse environment was a dream come true when I was able to secure an Internship in Washington DC with the World Bank Group, the world’s leading international development organization. The place is really bright and you get to work with the best people. The workforce is truly diverse in gender, nationality and ethnic background. I applied through the university career portal at ESB Reutlingen and received a call few days later for a telephonic interview. 3 case studies followed the interview and I was called for a 6 month Internship at the Financial Management Department (CFPFM) of the Concessional Finance and Global Partnerships vice presidential Unit. CFPFM handles the risk management function for the Trust Fund Portfolio of the World Bank.
Business at the World Bank is unique compared to a private enterprise. The World Bank carries out its operations through its 3 lending arms, the IBRD, the IDA and the IFC catering to the specific needs of their customers. The bank receives contributions from its donors and invests these in international capital markets until the funds are disbursed. The Internship opportunity provided a chance to learn about developmental economics and World Bank’s prudent financial governance structure."

The Week’s MaRS survey of B-schools sees SPJIMR positioned as the sixth best management institute in India.

The ratings are based on four major components viz. Input value, Value added, Learning ambience and Brand value.

Others factors contributing to the ranking were inputs from HR managers, current (B-school) students and aspiring students from major cities across the country. Details: http://bit.ly/SuOOsN
