Guide to the students

An article from indiatimes.com


 

Q. In the Indian perspective, what do you think are the emerging career options?

 
 

A: The Indian economy is more mature and is strongly working towards becoming a world power. India is doing well in sectors such as manufacturing, banking, financial services, etc. It is also doing well in the retail and hospitality space. Hence, there are many areas a student can look at.

 
 

Q. It is said that generally the education system in India is theory based, is WLC any different?

 
 

A: What we have seen is that though Indian students are extremely bright, they lack the ability to apply such knowledge in practice. At WLC we not just look into the grades but also how students approach the questions, solve case studies, research projects and discussions. We have a gradation system as well as a monitored performance check. We have traineeship programs for our students, wherein they can work while they study and they are also evaluated on this experience. We take a feedback from the organization they intern with.

 
 

Q. What is the demand of Indian professionals in the international scenario?

 
 

A: There is a huge demand for Indian professionals globally especially in the software segment. UK is even changing its visa policies to attract and retain talent in the country.

 
 

Q. How are students trained to face the corporate world?

 
 

A: Students are introduced to soft skills that they need on the job such as communication skills, interview skills, and team and time management. It helps students to perform better and handle pressure in a positive manner. There are also games, movies and small exercises outside the classroom that motivates students.

 
 

Q. What is the admission procedure in WLC?

 
 

A: There is a general aptitude test, a professional aptitude test followed by an interview and a counseling session.
