Hi,

Firstly to tell you, you have done your engineering from one of the  ever green field that's civil engineering. But still if you have interest in management then you can proceed as it's related to your career and only you have to work on it.



But being a engineer it's better to go for core related internship as it will boost your career. And if you want to go for management then go in coming future you can. Management internship and jobs are great at top B-school level.



Hope it helps you...All the best!

so mam can you tell me one thing if i have done internship in my core branch so it won't affect my resume when i'll go for the interview for IIM's .I think they will appreciate more if i have exposure to the market before joining Top B-schools.

Yes getting into IIM is anyway not that easy. I suggested you for core field internship as it will give boost your resume for field related jobs but if you have made up your mind for management then go for it.
Most important is you need to be positive with your decision because the job what you would do in coming future that only you will do no one else will get into your shoes to do it. So important is that you should be satisfied with it. So decide accordingly.

Hello Nilesh

As a Civil Engineer, it is extremely important that you do an internship related to your branch instead of a management internship. This will help you at a later stage when you will sit for placements. Also, you will get an insight into how the industry works so it will be easy for you when you get a job.

Thank You.

Internships in your core branch show your dedication and hard work. For IIM interviews you can do some management certification courses online.

Hi,

The type of internship you take must ideaaly be linked to the future you are shaping yourself for

If you are interested in management,you could take up management internshio to gain some much needed experienxe before going for an MBA

However if you want to take up a job in core,you could do an intern in the same field and gain practical exposure.
