Talent testimonials
the best part was the great work culture and people
Javed Alam
IIM Indore, IIT Kharagpur
During my internship at Kanvic, I was able to apply all the theoretical knowledge and frameworks I had studied in the first year of my MBA. The learning curve was exponential, helping me develop a structured approach to solving business problems. However, the best part was the great work culture and people. I could reach out to anyone at anytime and my colleagues would be more than happy to help me out.
