When you read a placement report of a reputed management institute, often, the report will list out the number of students opting out of the placements process. This is an odd occurrence given that placements are the primary reason why so many individuals want to do an MBA in the first place. So the question arises: why are these students opting out of the placements process? Are they opting out or are they being forced to opt out for reasons unmentioned in the placement report? In this video, an IIM Kozhikode alumnus explains five reasons why MBA students opt out of placements at b-school.

InsideEdge is a new series by InsideIIM, where we invite b-school students and graduates to provide honest insights about life before, during, and after MBA. We attempt to bring forth answers to questions like "How do you make a career in Consulting?", "How do I convert my summer internship into a job offer?", "What is the reality of placements at IIMs?", "Which committees should I join on campus?", "How do I win case competitions?" and others. Subscribe to the InsideIIM-Konversations YouTube channel to never miss out on an InsideEdge video.
