"One year at SOIL was definitely the best of my life. It did not just give me an education but introduced me to a new way of life which I have been pursuing ever since. I was looking for a complete “life” experience and not merely a business knowledge and SOIL offered me just that. Working at a global giant like HCL would not have been half as easy, had it not been for those insightful classes by the finest professors. One may wonder how big of an impact can a single year have on their life- I've got my answer and a rather pleasant one at that"- Ishdeep Singh, SOIL Alumni, Class of 2015

Bharat Singh Shares his experience of Internship at Microsoft.
"Being a global giant and a dream workplace for numerous youngsters, the interview was definitely not easy. I was given multiple marketing cases to solve and strategies to form spontaneously while sitting on that interview chair. Most of it would have seemed overwhelming had it not been for my faculty mentor at SOIL, Cauvery Bhalla. She connected me to a lot of senior Microsoft employees prior to the interview to help me understand Microsoft’s process and expectations. I am glad I was given an opportunity to appear for Microsoft and grateful for having been able to clear it. It would not have been possible without the grooming I received from the Career Services Team and my mentor. I look forward to my exciting one month at Microsoft"
