    My overall experience was great. I didn't expect that we will learn so much at Rajkot Airport being a small airport. Our instructor was really good and every department was explained deeply by them. They also shared their experiences they face during their day to day activities at the airport. They guided us how to apply for a better job, how to prepare for it. They also exchange their contact numbers for guidance which was appreciable. Staff was friendly and proper co-ordination was there. The training program is really helpful which gave deep knowledge about the Airport. I will like to thanks ILAM for this wonderful opportunity.
