My #XISSRanchi Experience.

By Mr. Frank Felix

Department of Marketing (2016-2018)

Experience is just a word to describe loads which I have gained from XISS in a short while. Before joining XISS I was working in a marketing research company in Kolkata as a Business Development Executive, but I realised that in order to gain altitude in my career I needed to study further. That’s why I decided to pursue MBA in Marketing and XISS came as a natural choice as I was aware of the culture of a Jesuit run institution which itself was an assurance of quality. Apart from that, the interactions with the acquaintances I had who were currently studying at the institute was convincing enough for me to select XISS as my primary option.

This is the first time that I have been away from home for studies and the journey till now has been fun. Life at Ranchi has simply been amazing whether it be the rides to Patratu, all the birthday treats which you get to enjoy, the late-night discussions or the group study before exams. It all perfectly falls into place. The classroom environment has been an enriching, one with the equally supportive faculty members being very approachable and are available at a moment’s notice.

There have also been some personal milestones achieved during this short while as I got to be Mr. Fresher of Marketing department 2016 and also the topper of Trimester 1. 

These accolades give me immense joy as it motivates me to keep going forward with the same enthusiasm. I look forward to my remaining time here as I know it will be filled with experiences and memories.

I intend to come out of here as a better person which can add greater value to the society and I think XISS gives me the right platform for the same. It also gives me an excellent launching pad to start my career and make it big in the long run. After all the institute, the faculty and your classmates can help you with the launch but navigating the space shuttle to the moon is your job.

XISS Nurtures

The XISS Difference

Because XISS “Nurtures professionals with a Difference”.

“You cannot shine like a star until you dream with the blazing passion of the night.”

Every day starts with a dream. A dream is the source of inspiration that keeps you passionate about your future. As said by our former president Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, that dreams are not what you see in sleep rather something that keeps you awake and inspires to achieve your goals. I also dreamt of coming to XISS and with the hard work, dedication and the support of my family I made it to this B-school.

As a B-Tech in Electronics and Communication, when I thought of pursuing MBA, my mind was totally focused and dedicated to XISS. XISS has been a source of continuous growth with its unparalleled social values and its unceasing success. Be it social service or academics XISS has always given wings and sky to everyone associated with tithe values that are the grass roots of this organization keeps its head held high keeps growing as an organization. The mission and vision of XISS keeps you galvanized towards your goal of becoming a ‘Professional with a Difference’.

Getting into XISS is certainly not a cake-walk. When you dream big you have to give your maximum efforts. With every step I took I was coming closer to my dream B-School. Filling the form brought into me the energy to prepare for the entrance and all the forthcoming processes after the exam. The preparations for GD and PI also went together. Going through the newspapers, topics and articles, discussing with other aspirants and continuously practicing as if nothing else existed. Sitting in a group of people preparing and delivering on my GD topics brought the best in me and it certainly helped a lot. The contentment I got after my Selection Process made me more confident for my choice. The environment at XISS Campus added to my thought of being in here will be the best direction for a brighter future.

And.. everything became reality when the results were declared and I got the golden opportunity to be a Xaverian for life. You feel so blessed when all your hard work pays you back.

My first day in XISS was a great experience understanding the core values and its nature. All our mentors addressed us and welcomed us to be a part of this renowned institute. Their guidance will groom and nurture us in the best way.

All of us do not have equal talents but all of us have the equal opportunity to develop our talents. XISS gives us numerous opportunities and a lifetime experience to grow and develop into professionals with a difference. I believe that with the help of all our mentors we will be able to put all our hard work in right direction for a brighter and better future .These two years will be golden years of my life and will help me to emerge with flying colours.

XISS, Thank You.
