Tips to crack Thorogood | Thorogood Experience


Experience
 I did my 6-month internship at Thorogood Associates India Pvt. Ltd, from May 2018 to Nov 2018. It was a brand new experience for me, they are more concerned about the work-life balance. 0% pressure and they have a lot of activities happening around every week. They have an Engage team that keeps us high on our toe with continuous events and workshops. Every week we had Monday meme mails, Thursday we had fun events, crazy birthday wishes, TGIT events by newcomers of the office and fancy dressing competition during festive seasons. It’s all fun.


Round 1: Essay writing and Aptitude. Go with few points for essay writing, sometimes you need to type the essay. For aptitude, prepare for everything and add little concentration for data interpretation.

Round 2: Thorogood looks for people with the following qualities,

  • Self-starters: Today's industry demands people to be working on their own without adding any dependency to their co-workers, its the same expectation. In other perspectives, you will be given a weightage if you started a club or curated a new event or had a startup or formed a student community.
  • Perseverance: The way we address the questions in the interview will be analyzed and there they will be strongly looking for never give up attitude.
  • Customer obsession: Few intentional questions will be asked, to know how much we care about our friends, our college and our customers.
  • Communication: They have a charming and diverse culture in the Indian office, we can find people from different states of the country. There comes the need for good English. Practice karo, you can make it. Get ready with your projects. You should show excellence in at least one subject or area.

Assessment Center: 
There will be 4 rounds and a self-evaluation submission. It is advisable to go unprepared. But, it is good to keep a few points in mind,
1. Be attentive 
2. Never hesitate to ask questions
3. If you are asked to do a presentation, speak confidently
You have to be in full concentration for the whole day starting from 8.30 AM to 5.30PM. 

Note: It's false that, students can’t learn much from TG. You can explore yourself and its best place where you can nurture yourself with Techno-management skills. Nowadays, they have started moving more towards Data Analytics, cloud, and a few more cutting edge technologies as well. If you are thirsty, you can add a kind request to the Indian management team. I am sure, they will take that for consideration. 

By the way, Thorogood has a special touch in their food choices.

குட்டி ஆசை - அத்தா அம்மா

பழைய நிகழ்வுகளே காரணம் என நினைக்குறேன், அப்பாவின் ஜீப் மோகத்திற்கு. சிகப்பு நிறத்தில் ஒரு ஜீப் அதை அப்படியே அப்பாவிற்கு அர்ப்பணிக்க வேண்டும்.  என் சிறுவயதில் அவள் அதிகமா திரில்லர் நாவல்கள் படிப்பதை கவனித்திருக்கிறேன், தற்சமயம் அவள் அதிலிருந்து வெகு தூரம் சென்றுவிட்டாலோ? என்னசெய்தாயினும் அம்மாவை புத்தக வாசிப்பிற்க்கு  மீண்டும் கொண்டு வர வேண்டும்.  இசை ஜாம்பவான்களின் நிகழ்ச்சிகளுக்கு, அப்பாவை அழைத்துச் செல்ல வேண்டும். முக்கியமாக SP பாலசுப்ரமணியம் கச்சேரிகளுக்கு. முறையான இசை ஞானத்தை அடைய உதவ வேண்டும், கச்சேரிகள் நடத்தவும் உறுதுணையாக இருக்கனும். நேரத்தை பிரித்து, உடற்பயிற்சி செய்ய ஏற்பாடு செய்து தரனும். இருவரையும் ஜோடியாக உடற்பயிற்சி செய்ய வைத்தால் நன்றாக இருக்கும். ஒருவரை ஒருவர் மெச்சிக் கொள்வார்கள் தான்.  குதிரை வளர்ப்பில் ஏனோ ஒரு பிரியம், நல்ல திடகாத்திரமான அரேபிய குதிரையை அவர்கள் வளர்ப்பதை ரசித்திடவேண்டும்.  நல்ல உடல்நிலையை உறுதி செய்ய இருவருக்கும் வருடம் இருமுறை முழு உடல் பரிசோதனை செய்யனும். முடியும் என்றால், ஸ்டெம்செல் த...

Vivid lights for the lightning girl

  She was so adorable and sweet. I wished to be with her and she’s the one whom I admire in my daily life, she always stands with us. We made it to the city after a long long wait. I know the truth behind it but she didn’t. When we landed, it was bizarre that there are extra smiling faces in and around the streets. Time flies by, …while bidding goodbye to everyone, people demanded a selfie with her on the day of Diwali 2019. We are going to be here and so everyone will be…so let's make it next time, I gave up the selfie with her.     Dec 13 eve is the last time I saw her on the video call, she hides all her pain and gave a smile for us. It felt so special that despite her work she dressed up in a pinkish silk saree with violet borders; just for having a video call with us. Many a time she came forward just to help, without even having a second thought about it. You are a calm one, furthermore a deterministic girl. I find your character so impressive that I have...
