Joining the Entrepreneurship Cell is a straightforward yet selective process designed to identify students with passion, creativity, and strategic thinking. The journey begins with a Google Form circulated among students, where they fill in their details and choose a vertical of their interest—be it Corporate Partnerships, Events, Startup & Innovation, Media & Tech, or Marketing. The first round is a Group Discussion, where candidates discuss a topic based on recent trends or current affairs. This round helps assess their communication, awareness, presentation skills, and real-time attentiveness. Those who perform well move on to the Interview Round, where our team poses strategic questions and real-life scenarios to test their problem-solving abilities and presence of mind. Based on their clarity of thought and innovative approach, selected students are warmly welcomed into the club to begin their entrepreneurial journey.
