Languages were always perceived as a soft option by most students – a device for pumping up scores and a weapon of the intellectually challenged. The career counseling session on the 22nd of July 2010 showed us all that this surmise is as far from the truth as possible.
Mr. Neelameghan Muralidharan, an entrepreneur with an amazing flair for languages, gave us, the Commerce Students, an exemplary speech on the pros of business management as an option and the need for learning multiple languages. He discussed the importance of the IT Sector and highlighted the remarkable impact finance has on all our lives. The inclusion of anecdotes from his own life, made the speech more interesting.
He went on to talk about the need for fine-tuning our communication skills and provided smart analogies, which drove his points home. He shared his experiences and “shortcuts” with us and gave an informative power point presentation. Throughout this session, he asked and answered questions, making the whole experience an interactive one.
He wound up his speech to much applause and took his leave after giving us a lot of food for thought.
