Mumbai, 8th June 2019
S.N.D.T College held its first-ever career counseling workshop on 8th June 2019. The event saw counselors coming in from all over Mumbai to guide the students about the best career paths, post their graduation.
A majority of the college alumni were also present at the event. Many of them narrated their success stories in order to motivate the students. Sonu Sharma, a financial advisor, told the students how his consistent performance made him the youngest manager at his financial firm. Babul avsti, a music composer, narrated the story of her struggle. She had to compose 115 tunes before finally getting selected to compose music for a Bollywood film. With the students being informed on the variety of career opportunities and the alumni achievers sharing their achievements, the event was a huge success.

Miss Fernandes is our new class teacher. She is slim and fit even at the age of 50. With her grey hair, spectacles, and plain formal clothes, she looks so strict!
