It was not only us who entered into the class today, Silence
and a bit of fright also crept in. Thanks to the feedbacks and reviews of past
students of GMCS who helped us get into a survival mode. :) Some of us got
reminded of our teachers, some of us of our dreaded professors when we saw our
faculty for the day. He was in his forties, bit plump and sported seriousness
on his face and clearly sent out a signal that we need to have seriousness to a
much larger extent after having some fun in the last class. With all due
respect our mentor’s name is Mr Mukesh Goyal.
Every individual has their own style of mentoring and it was
reflected when one of the member of our group requested that we no more wanted
to brush ourselves again and again on interview, dressing sense and other
behavioral aspects and our faculty readily obliged and not touching on those
issues made us know the nuances of finest aspects of carrying ourselves on the
professional front and imparting the trivial areas of dressing (Trousers,
Shirt, Blazer, Shoes, Socks, Belt, Wallet) where we tend to falter on.
We were made to realize the importance of CA Course and the
reputation we command in the corporate world. We were given some hard hitting
truths pertaining tour profession, Examination procedure and the level of
integrity. After some time we tend to be not interested in the discussion.
One peculiar aspect of today was that even our watch has
stopped responding and time was forced to pass. We all were communicating and
expressing thousands of emotions with our eyes (Felt as if we had imbibed in
ourselves the art of body language to a greater extent) Ha-ha…
Side movements and noise were our distant relatives today.
Lunch break was not only lunch break for us but a medium of letting our pent up
emotions among our friends. The irony was that lunch break passed away quickly
and we were again found ourselves seated on tour hot seat. We were given a
presentation on Representation before Authorities and Code of Ethics. These
things took us back to the pre-examination days and for some time our lips were
zipped and we were more like mere spectators hearing (We heard and never
listened… :)
)
The day was coming to an end and was concluded by explaining
what interview is and how it should be prepared? (Technical Sense) After
entertaining few questions on myths and facts about our profession, we followed
our style of capturing ourselves with the faculty no matter how they were as
“Mentors are the people who have the power to mould our personality”
With an extended smile on our face, we left to our
respective places remembering that “Tough times don’t last forever”… :)
