Shashank Kadetotad, MSCM '12

Shashank chose Michigan Ross because of its reputation for exceptional operations faculty.

"I knew I'd be learning from world-class professors," he says, "but the level of teaching at Ross is something I never could have imagined."

In addition to his summer internship experience with General Motors Corp. in Germany, Shashank ranks Professor Izak Duenyas' Manufacturing and Supply Operations course as one of the highlights of his Michigan Ross experience.

Since graduating, Shashank has joined Amazon in an operations management role, which he landed through on-campus recruiting. He says Ross Career Services was a great resource for resume tips and mock interviews, but he especially appreciated the career coaches' cultural insights.

"In India, we don't engage in as much small talk, so learning how to connect with people in America is important, both for business and personal life."
