IIM Indore Through Lenses Of An Exchange Student - University of Münster, Germany

We have always seen students of IIMs going on exchange to universities abroad. In the same set up, students from abroad come to our universities in India. David Merzger is one such student from Germany, who had come for a term to IIM Indore. He is pursuing masters in studies of business administration from Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Germany. David is interested in finance, and has gained hands on commercial experience in financial services back in Germany during his internship with several companies. As part of social activities, he has also worked for civilian service. Let’s check out what he thinks about IIM Indore.

Final Placements : IIM Bangalore - Class of 2015

Final Placements : IIM Bangalore - Class of 2015

You would think the premier schools of India will lead the way in what can be described as a super hit placement season across campuses. IIM Bangalore's placement season only strengthens that belief. As has been the trend for this batch everywhere, E-Commerce is the sector firing on all cylinders. Amazon and Snapdeal made 17 offers each. Similarly, the private equity and venture capital scene at IIM Bangalore seems to be up again (It could also just be that they are revealing more names this year. Either way it looks good). The Consulting domain has snapped up a whopping 30% of the batch with the biggest names in the business all being there. Banking and Finance though half the size of Consulting still outshines Sales & Marketing. Another remarkable statistic is that 60% of the batch had a PPO or a Lateral Job offer in hand before the placement season began. Nearly 33% of the batch bagged PPOs in a batch of 400 odd. It is more than the batch size of a few schools like JBIMS!

The two day extravaganza held in October 2014 saw the confluence of renowned industry leaders, academicians and students exchanging ideas on myriad of business facets.

North East: Why do I love being here?

North East: Why do I love being here?

The word 'Racism' induces a fair amount of discomfort, given its contrasting connotation to the official 'Unity in Diversity'. Having stayed in Delhi for most part of my life, the tension with respect to the people of North East has always been palpable in the city. Honestly I was also unaware about the behavior and culture of these people. I had never interacted with anyone from that part of the country and whenever the tabloids featured news on discrimination to these people, I always wondered if there was any logical explanation. It felt as though there was an intangible demarcation and it didn't seem right. Such events were sporadic and over the years it created a string of misconceptions in my mind.
