The college focuses on fostering critical thinking, leadership skills, and a strong academic foundation, preparing its students to excel in a wide variety of professional fields and contribute meaningfully to society.

First Impressions: A Glimpse into the Tech World

The visit began with a guided tour of the Askan Technologies office. Students were walked through various departments, observing the collaborative work environment and the infrastructure that supports our day-to-day operations. This provided them with practical exposure to how different teams, from development to design, work in synergy to achieve common goals, offering a perspective beyond what can be taught in a classroom.

Guiding the Future: An Interactive Career Session

Following the tour, the students participated in an insightful and interactive session led by Ms. Meenakshi Devi, our Head of Human Resources. The session was tailored to address the key questions and concerns that students have as they prepare to transition from academia to their professional careers.

Ms. Meenakshi covered several crucial topics, including the importance of a well-crafted resume, the power of a professional LinkedIn presence, and the essential communication skills that companies look for in fresh graduates. The core message was centered on adaptability, continuous learning, and the importance of aligning one's passion with their career choices.

Curiosity and Ambition: Students Ask, Experts Answer

The session was highly interactive, with students actively posing thoughtful questions.

One student, REBECCA EMIMAL PRINCY A, asked about the scope and opportunities for a career in digital marketing within a technology-focused company.

Ms. Meenakshi Devi explained that digital marketing plays a vital role in today’s business world, covering various functions that help companies connect with their audience. She described how it begins with SEO, which improves visibility, followed by content creation, social media engagement, email marketing, and paid campaigns. Each of these roles works together to build a brand’s presence, attract the right customers, and communicate value effectively, making digital marketing an essential part of a company’s growth and success.

The practical nature of the discussion naturally led to a high level of interest in gaining hands-on experience. Many students eagerly asked about internship opportunities. Ms. Meenakshi Devi elaborated on the programs available at Askan Technologies, explaining that the company offers internships across several key domains, including web technologies, mobile app development, Angular, and Node.js. She also highlighted the flexibility of the programs, noting that both online and offline options are available to accommodate students' needs, providing a clear pathway from learning to doing.

The conversation then took an inspiring turn when another student shared her career aspiration. She mentioned that after completing her degree, her goal was to prepare for the IAS examination to pursue a career in public service. This moment was met with great appreciation from Ms. Meenakshi and the team, who commended the student's vision and highlighted how the discipline required for such a goal is a hallmark of success in any field.
