Students' Experience of Placements - Commerce

Students' Experience of Placements - Commerce

I am Dhanush C S from Bangalore. Moving from a student phase to an employee phase is a beautiful transition, and I should thank Department Of Commerce, CHRIST Deemed to be University and the placement cell for providing me with an opportunity and getting placed in KPMG for the Audit Associate role. The emotional experience of getting placed with a Big Four dream company like KPMG is something I will cherish forever.

The Department of Commerce has always provided me with excellent opportunities to develop at both professional and personal level. The exposure I got from participating in many commerce fests, right from Prarambh to Mitige, helped me develop my skills, and many webinars conducted by the department helped me understand the ground reality of the corporate world. Seminars and placement training activities undertaken by the placement cell helped boost and increased my confidence level, which allowed me to crack the interviews without any hurdle.

As a commerce student, the corporate arena has always intrigued me. The way businesses run, departments function and their integration with the external world not only drives me crazy, but our dream roles further add up to the hope and excitement. I have often heard that the job after graduation hits you differently, whether you are a fresher or an experienced student and my first interview was with Deloitte for the audit associate role. However, I couldn't convert the offer. Though I cleared all elimination rounds right from the aptitude test till group discussion, I still couldn't ace the final interview round somewhere, but be sure to learn from your previous mistakes and keep practicing.

My first interaction with the KPMG happened during their campus recruitment drive. The brief introduction at the Pre-placement talk was like a pitch for me to apply and get through the Audit associate role. Two things that contributed to my decision were the senior folks who shared their experience about KPMG, and the other thing was my interest in the Audit segment. The selection process was divided into three rounds; firstly, I had an Aptitude test followed by a technical interview round. Later, those who cleared the technical interview round had a Final HR interview round.

My interview experience was one of the memorable ones in comparison to all the others I sat for. The interviewer was very adept and crisp with the questions about my internship, my previous position of responsibilities, and my accountancy knowledge. I vividly remember the rapid-fire round where she threw random situations at me, and I had to be quick with the responses. The process ended up with a brief discussion about the role and career progression at the firm. I was hopeful for my selection, but finally, my selection was confirmed. Perhaps, I felt this was one of the best decisions I had taken for my career.

I want to thank HOD, Coordinator and my faculty for what I am today. The department has always endeavored to give excellent opportunities to its students and moulds them to become better social beings. At last, I must say that I am proud to be a part of the Department of Commerce, CHRIST Deemed to be University.

  2. I can’t stop playing Drift Hunters ! The graphics are clean, and the gameplay is smooth. It's amazing how the game captures the excitement of drifting. It's easy to pick up but hard to master, which makes it so addictive.

  10. Congratulations on landing your dream role at KPMG! Your journey really resonates with me - I remember the mix of nervousness and excitement during my own placement interviews. The way you bounced back from the Deloitte experience shows real resilience. It reminds me of how I approach challenging levels in Geometry Dash - each failed attempt teaches you something new, and persistence eventually pays off with that satisfying breakthrough moment.

  12. Reading about students’ experiences of placements in Commerce really reminded me of my own journey. My placement taught me so much about real workplace dynamics, time management, and applying theoretical knowledge in practical situations. It was both exciting and challenging, especially at the beginning. While working on my reflection and reports, Research Article Writing Help really supported me in structuring my ideas clearly and presenting my experience professionally. Placement experiences can shape our understanding of the industry and help us grow in ways the classroom never can. This topic truly resonates with me!
