Why am I here?

So as I promised I would be explaining in one of my posts the whole purpose of me being here in India. For those of you who don't know here you go,,,

I'm here doing an internship for one year in a company named Tata Consultancy Services (www.tcs.com). It's an IT consultancy company. One of the biggest in Asia if not the biggest.

I got this internship through an organization called AIESEC (www.aiesec.org). The main purpose of this organization is people development. It does that through a lot of tools and activities. One of these tools is exchange. This simply means sending people from Egypt, for example, to any of the 100+ countries AIESEC exists in on an internship in a company. Through this you get to actually develop both professionally and personally. In Egypt also we receive people from other AIESEC countries to do internships.

Of course my description of the organization's activities is quite poor to what it actually does. If you wanna know more you can check the web site and know all there is to know about it. I was a member of this organization for about 3 years and I must say that I did learn a few things that made me who I am today.

I've spent 3 weeks in Mumbai before coming to Bangalore. The first week was company induction. The other two weeks were simply waiting for project allocation! My experience in Mumbai needs a separate post. Maybe I'll get to that later!! :D

Till next time ;)
