Industry Conversations That Shape Future Careers
As part of its Corporate Connect Series, GL Bajaj Institute of Management and Research (GLBIMR), Greater Noida, organized an insightful session featuring Ms. Prerna, Talent Acquisition Lead – Analytics, Data Science & Tech Hiring, EXL. The session was designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations, enabling students to gain first-hand exposure to evolving career opportunities and workplace realities.

Ms. Prerna shared valuable insights into the asset and wealth management industry, highlighting the growing significance of analytics in driving financial decision-making and business performance. She explained the increasing demand for professionals with strong analytical capabilities and emphasized the value of globally recognised certifications such as the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) qualification for students aspiring to build successful careers in finance. She also offered practical guidance on preparing for finance placements, discussing the skills, mindset, and competencies recruiters actively seek.

A major highlight of the session was an engaging Zomato delivery case study, where students participated in a role-play by assuming the responsibilities of Finance, Marketing, and Leadership teams. This interactive exercise encouraged critical thinking, collaboration, and strategic decision-making while demonstrating how cross-functional teams work together to solve real business challenges.

The session provided freshers with greater clarity on career pathways in finance and analytics while reinforcing the importance of industry-ready skills. Through initiatives like the Corporate Connect Series, GLBIMR continues to strengthen industry-academia collaboration, preparing students to confidently navigate dynamic business environments and emerge as future-ready management professionals.
