Meet India's 30 Most Employable Management Graduates from the Class of 2015

In November 2014, we kick-started our Best50 competition. It is an attempt to find the best management graduates from across all Business Schools in India graduating in March-April 2015. The competition involved the students volunteering to be considered for this title. Only those who think they are among the best can actually be the best! The next round involved allowing the best among the applicants to submit a resume and a write-up where they had to answer 5-6 of our questions. This was evaluated by a group of recruiters who have years of experience of recruiting from different MBA campuses in India.

Interrobang experience - Winner of ITC Interrobang?! IIM Indore 2014

Interrobang experience - Winner of ITC Interrobang?! IIM Indore 2014

It was an interesting experience working for Interrobang. I knew this was a very prestigious competition and there were PPIs at stake. So I was taking this competition very seriously. The team formation happened by chance. I had participated with Sruthi in many competitions and participating in this one with her was an obvious choice. Arjun came up to me and asked me to participate in this competition with him. I had an experience working with him in Career Launcher live project. Sumit came along with Arjun. So we had a fair idea of each other’s strengths. I was convinced that this could be a decent team. We named the team Cookie Monsters, which I though was a bit witty ;)
