A few weeks into starting on the three-month LITMUS training program (Learn IT from US), we catch up with Akshara PB, a Computer Science and Engineering graduate. How are you settling in? "All good! I'm the only person from my college in this group so at first, I was a little nervous, but everyone has made us feel welcome. I'm really excited about being in an office space for the first time." How is the transition from campus to office life? "I had a few hiccups in the initial phase. The induction program and the behavioural sessions have helped us to bridge the gap from a campus to a corporate environment." Which aspects of your training have you enjoyed? "The daily conversations with HR team and our trainers; the weekly review sessions, with many opportunities to improve. I am also enjoying each and every moment with my LITMUS team mates!" Tell us about a learning highlight "The behavioural sessions for building self-confidence, from office etiquette to speaking in public. My ‘a-ha’ moment was realising that I had to be brave and speak in public otherwise I wouldn’t learn."
