Duration of internship and timings

June 6, 2016 – July 3, 2016

First impression, first day formalities, infrastructure

On the first day I have to report somewhere around 10 am in the morning. I reached there an hour before and only clerk was there who gave me a form to fill up and my internship started after a short fake-interview.

The office is situated at Erandwane infront of SNDT College and it is working on a flat.

Main tasks

Poster making and sticking, helping in HR department and recruitment, research on various topics for presentation, fundraising, etc.

Work environment and people

All the people in office were around the age of 30 so it was easy for me to adjust with them.

Best things

The best thing was that you cannot be forced to do any work and no one was boss there. Even the interns were treated as the normal employees.

Bad things

If you are a law student then it won’t be upto your expectation. The work assigned are totally boring but if you want to test your patience for a long month then you must go here.

Stipend

None

Biggest Lessons

I haven’t learnt much about the law related things there but if you want to open an NGO and the organised one then you will learn here.

Accommodation

I have my own home there.

Office Timings

10 am to 6 pm. You can have a lunch break around 1 o’clock in the noon and you can also take the short break whenever you feel tired.
