No Cultural Shock at XLRI, Jamshedpur
I am currently pursuing the two-year postgraduate programme in Personnel Management and Industrial Relations (PMIR), the oldest and the most prestigious course at XLRI, Jamshedpu. I have never felt culturally alienated on campus, 
especially considering the fact that I’m from Delhi.
True, this was my first hostel experience but if one is able to empathise with people and accept them as they are without being judgemental, it’s not difficult to get along.
I did my Bachelors of Business Studies from Delhi University and worked for KPMG for a year. And life at XLRI has been smooth sailing. XLRI is a city in itself.
As far as education is concerned, it’s the best institute for human resource management education.
The institute also has a very friendly culture. One can go up to any faculty member or a senior and ask for help.
I’ve become more independent and have started taking my own decisions ever since I’ve come to study here.
Perhaps, the only problem I’ve faced so far is that entertainment options in this city are limited unlike in the Capital city of Delhi.
