Hi..

A brief introduction about Northpoint and the courses it offers..Northpoint is Learning centre started by Lintas India..The couses at Northpoint Centre of Learning are designed in a way that after learning theory, each student applies his /her knowledge by on-the-job training at Lintas divisions and corporates..There are two courses offered as of now Post graduate program in Advertising and marketing communication and Post Graduate Program in Media management..

out of 18 months during the course, 12 months is on the job training..this is very important according to me because as communications students we need to understand and be a part of proffesional atmosphere..we are attached with mentor at each and every stage of on-the-job training..The first stint was a sales stint with various companies like Tanishq, Brittania, Berger Paints, ICICI Prudential, Polar Industries, VIP and many more..

The theory is taught by working proffesionals from industry ( client side) and advertising agencies..this gets each student in touch with theory and practical implication of the same..The theory classes are held at Northpoint Centre of Learning, KhandALA..THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS Reallyyyyy amazing!!!! I would say Better than any other institute!!!!

I am a BMS graduate and have work experience of 1 year before joining Northpoint in the field or corporate sales with Taj Hotels and have marketed general insurance. I am pursuing Post Graduate Program for Advertising and Marketing communications at Northpoint..I did my sales stint at Tanishq working on a live project making their communication strategy and understanding their sales structure..

Will post about our everyday life next time..Bye 4 now..

Wish u best for urs stint. you are going to have a wonderful time. And IMAG people too.......

Hey

This week I m at Aaren Initiative - Outdoor advertising division of Lintas..Working on a research..visited BMC and RTO etc ..Learning how government bodies function n I think they r pretty cool ppl (atleast the RTO)..

I am left with one feeling after 2 weeks of Internship..I would have never realised what Integrated Marketing Communications world is without actually working in these various divisions and seeing for myself what i like n what i dont like as a career..

hey whts the salary package offered to a northpoint graduate. after mica and imi it will be my 3rd choice in terms of advertising/mktg courses

17

Hey Opium of masses

The salary to PGPAMM batch i.e.Post graduate in Media Management was 2.5 Lacs p.a..Our batch is the first batch for Course in Advertising and Marketing Communication..We expect atleast what the PGPAMM batch got or more..Plus we will get an advantage of specializing in the field we want(specialization will b tailor made to each individuals needs..not like other courses) for 6-8 months..when we pass we wd already have 1 yr work ex..secondly we will graduate 6 months b4 other 2 year courses..6 month salary advantage since we will start earning b4 others..plus we will climb up the ladder faster since we will have 1 n half year work ex by the time others come as trainess..

if u have any more queries do post them..

Hey!

Just completed my stint with Lintertainment & LinOpinion (entertainment marketing and PR division of IMAG). Its was too cool working with both the divisions, got good opportunities to work on live project. Brainstormed for in-film placement for upcoming movies and approached companies with proposal, even got an opportunity to attend client meetings! Right now I am with Lintas Personal (direct marketing division of IMAG) working on some projects for new business opportunity.

How are thing at your end Vinit?... when r u guys returning to Northpoint?
