Two Whole Days of Electrifying Energy at #SGRIndia! Our newest management trainees from Saint-Gobain India Private Limited - Glass Business—straight from campus—turned our #InductionProgram into an unforgettable journey of discovery. Their fresh mind and curiosity filled the space with more questions – sharp, insightful, and sometimes, downright challenging. Over two days, we introduced them to our labs, innovative teams, and groundbreaking processes. We witnessed a vibrant exchange of ideas, debates that sparked new thoughts, and an atmosphere so charged that it felt surreal to see how quickly they grasped the depth of what we do here at Saint-Gobain Research India. Being the #Innovation centre for India, this space is not just for R&D people but for anyone within Saint-Gobain to thrive on novelty. Acknowledging the fact that these new faces are going to be the future of innovation, these first days were an indication that Saint-Gobain’s future looks incredibly bright. Here’s to the power of fresh perspective and the #endless possibilities they bring in. This is how reaction happens when you mix boundless #curiosity with a house of innovation! The Learning was mutual.

After one and a half years of college, I graduated in absentia with a certificate in Library Studies. Back then, it was referred to as Library Technician Certificate (LTC). I did not attend the graduation as I could not afford the plane ticket to fly to Port Moresby, where the graduation was happening at UPNG. I roamed the streets of Goroka and Kainantu aimlessly, involving in all activities my peers were doing. Most of my peers were school drop outs. I did not have the inclination nor the urgency to search for job opportunities. It seems life was good, I was just flowing with the tide. The turning point in life came, when God opened the hearts of two lovely individuals who provided me the opportunity to get a footing into formal employment. The former Prinicipal and Deputy Principle of then Kainantu High School. Fast-foward, here I am in a cosy office environment. Doing my share to contribute to nation building. Two important lessons I wish to share are; when given opportunity, whether small or big, grab them with two hands, learn and build your career; use your experience to groom the next leaders and contribute to nation building. I have coached, advised and provided mentorship to many young individuals by challenging them to think beyond the horizon. This was something missing in my early educational and career path. #Career #Coaching #Mentorship

✨ Grateful for the Opportunity to Attend MENDAKI's MARA Convention ✨ I recently had the privilege of attending MENDAKI’s MARA Convention, and it was such an inspiring experience! As a fresh graduate embarking on my own professional journey, a few key takeaways really resonated with me: 1) Lifelong Learning is Essential: Graduation doesn’t mark the end of learning—it’s just the beginning. One speaker shared how, even after years in the industry, they’re constantly learning and adapting to new challenges. It was a great reminder that staying curious and open to growth is key to long-term success. 2) Failure Leads to Growth: Many speakers shared personal stories of failure, highlighting how setbacks often pave the way for even greater opportunities. One panelist's story about how a career misstep opened doors to a new and exciting role was particularly encouraging and reminded me that failure is just part of the journey. 3) Networking is Powerful: Building meaningful connections and seeking guidance from mentors was another major theme. The convention emphasized how valuable it is to learn from others, especially those who’ve already navigated similar paths. It really drove home the importance of reaching out and building relationships, even if it feels daunting at first. This experience gave me a fresh perspective on starting my career and reinforced the value of contributing not only to my own development but also to the community around me. A big thank you to MENDAKI for organizing such an enriching event, and to everyone I met who generously shared their insights! #MARAConvention #FreshGraduate #CareerJourney

We recently organized a two-day workshop at ITI Karnal to strengthen industry-academia connections and improve placement drives. 13 Junior Apprenticeship and Placement Officers (JAPOs) from government ITIs in Karnal, Nissing, Tarori, Indri, Gharaunda, and Ballah participated in this workshop. 🙌    Our team, along with some participants, visited Modern Dairy, Ebro India, and CLS Exports Ltd to understand industry needs and explore how to better connect students with job opportunities. The workshop also focused on strategies for building industry partnerships, pitching MoUs, and organizing successful placement drives. With these enhanced strategies, JAPOs are now better equipped to conduct impactful placement drives, helping students confidently secure meaningful career opportunities. 🌱 Christopher Turillo Byomkesh Mishra Saurabh Rai Manan Majithia Sanskriti Sharma Jasdeep Singh Satya Jeet #MedhaOrg #TheForceIsStrong #Training #Haryana #Workshop #Career #Opportunities

𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚! Completing a placement year as part of my course was a rewarding choice, it was hard to secure a placement but definitely worth it! Step Recruitment helps match companies with students searching for placements. 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒆’𝒔 𝒘𝒉𝒚 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍: 𝑺𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔: - A placement year provides students with first hand experience of the professional environment, helping them understand what they enjoy and what they don’t in a work setting. - Completing a placement year significantly boosts a student’s CV, making them more attractive to graduate employers. - The process of applying for placements gives students valuable practice in job applications and interviews, which can be advantageous when seeking full-time employment post-graduation. - A placement year allows students to ‘test-drive’ a career path or industry, helping them make informed decisions about their future careers based on real-world experience. 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒆𝒔: - Access to a pool of potential future employees who are already familiar with the companies' operations and culture, reducing training time and costs if they hire these students post-graduation. - Placement students often bring new ideas and perspectives that can contribute to innovation within the company. - Hiring placement students can be cost-effective as they are typically paid less than full-time employees but still contribute significantly to projects and daily operations. - Companies get an extended period to evaluate the student’s performance, work ethic, and fit within the team before making any long-term hiring decisions. #StepRecruitment #PlacementYear #CareerBoost #StepRecruitment #ProfessionalGrowth #realworldskills
