Dream Companies – Final Part – InsideIIM Recruitment Survey 2015
We close this year’s slew of survey reports with one of its most awaited sections: the list of “dream companies” which all of us aspire to (or have aspired to) work for at some point in our careers. Given the natural order of minimizing entropy, MBA students tend to focus on specific domains while making critical career choices. However, there are a few companies that transcend the barriers of domains/sectors and are representative of the ultimate pinnacle of achievement, with which most of the individuals in this trade attach a lot of importance. In this regard, one must truly acknowledge the achievements of the firms that enjoy such an exalted status as they have not only succeeded in catching the B-school ‘pulse’ but also have repeated doing so year after year. The time-tested stories regarding how students have burnt a lot of midnight oil to prepare that “perfect CV” which can fetch them a short-list from one of their “dream companies” further corroborate the immense appeal enjoyed by these firms. In fact, given the basic tripartite segregation underlying our survey, the significant extent of overlap between the lists for the different respondent segments (witnessed in the past editions) does succeed in driving home the fact that breaking into the list is nigh impossible. So, has the overlap rolled into this edition of the survey as well? Let’s find out!
