Brainwave Education, Amar Chitra Katha
Bangalore
Whether you want to be an entrepreneur or a top corporate honcho, it takes more than just desire. You need great passion and most importantly, real skills to succeed. May of us think that we should do an MBA. But the reality is that MBA programs cannot teach you entrepreneurship. Good MBA programs are costly, teach mostly theory and are taught by people who haven’t been entrepreneurs themselves
At Brainwave, you get the opportunity to do much much more than an MBA program. Intern with us! True – joining our team is very difficult. True – you have to slog it out for at least 5-6 months. But, we promise that you will go back with unprecedented learning. It is faster and a lot lot more hands-on. And what more, you will be paid!
Our doors are always open to passionate individuals who realise this. Sure, if you think you have crossed the internship phase and are ready for a permanent role, you can apply too. But, be prepared to answer many questions and perform many test tasks. We work only with the best – in attitude and fundamental knowledge. And if you are selected, the sky will be the limit for your professional growth.
All positions are based in Bangalore, India. Email your profile, work samples and a short paragraph on why you want to join us - to sasikanth.c@ack-media(dot)com
