There is a good representation of all sectors from the industry making it easier for students to find employment with their desired organizations. Traditionally consulting companies have had a strong presence at FORE.
The average CTC being offered to the students is higher than last year and should end-up recording a jump over the 2014 number of approx. Rs 8 lacs. Several students are being offered over Rs 12 lacs per anum package this time around.
According the Chairperson Placements, Dr Rajneesh Chauhan, "The number of PPIs and PPOs offered to students this year have also increased, as have the international placements. Given that the cost of pursuing PGDM at FORE has always been on the lower side, this means a payback period of less than one year for a well placed student! ".
