This academic year, "Banshi Career Day 2014" by BBA student council was held on the 8th November 2014. The session was exclusively provided for our faculty students with a goal to prepare them for their future career path and to increase the rate of getting accepted into companies. Within a day, participants got a lot of useful information and knowledge ranging from writing effective resume, understanding more of each work field including marketing, accounting, consulting and finance as well as planning for higher education. On behalf of BBA Student Council 2014, we would like to express our gratitude to our alumni for being our guest panelist at Banshi Career Day. We truly appreciate the time and effort they have put to share stories to our participants.We also appreciate the participation of all participants on that day.
