It is often said that the foundation of a
building requires maximum investment and minimum compromise with quality.
Today, while I enjoy the fruits of achieving big in my profession, I feel proud
to recollect the time when my career’s foundation was being laid at NCU. Law as
a career was never an option for me until I came across a bunch of students
formally dressed up in a Lawyer’s attire having a group discussion on a
contemporary issue.
The professionalism showcased by my young
fellow mates at that point was such that the very next
day I started enquiring about the procedure of migrating from the programme in
which I was admitted initially, to the School of Law. Within a week, the
quality investments towards time management, knowledge, professionalism, discipline,
career building and skill polishing were already in place for us. One of the
most innovative endeavors taken by the law faculty at The NorthCap University
was to regularly execute out of classroom learning techniques.
As a student, I found this approach quite intellectual
and rewarding. Almost every week, Guest Lectures, Moot Courts, Competitions and
Seminars were organized, where we had the flavour of not just organizing events
but also participating in the same. I bagged five confirmed job opportunities
along with the maximum CTC ever received by any NCU alumni, thereby, proving
that the foundation of my career couldn’t have been better if the formula of
maximum investment and minimum compromise with quality hadn’t been followed so diligently
by my alma mater.
