Final placements - FMS Delhi Class of 2014 (unverified report)
FMS is still smarting under perceived slights from InsideIIM last year. They said they have taken a unanimous decision not to have any relationship with InsideIIM. They said that in our reporting, we have been biased against FMS and favoured IIM L and XLRI. We would like to once again reiterate that we are not biased in favour of any B school. Our placement reports always focus on the achievements and the positive aspects of the placement season. Our other research like alumni reports also does not discriminate against B schools. Our portal sees more enthusiastic participation from some B schools than others, but that is not in our hands. We certainly hope they would change their mind at some point, and start co-operating with us. Without their co-operation, we are left with little option but to look for information from public sources. We introduce this report with the caveat that the data is not verified, and readers are requested to act with caution while making decisions based on this information.

Final Placements : JBIMS - Class of 2014 (Unverified)
In the first week of April, we thought we had broken the deadlock with the JBIMS Placement Committee. However, we are back to square one. JBIMS sent us data but it had names of companies that didn't recruit but may have 'participated' or 'confirmed participation'. We do not allow those names to be put as this practice is highly misleading. JBIMS says it is against their policy because it spoils relationship with recruiters. That is a very strange logic because - if recruiters were indeed desperate to be part of JBIMS' placement report, they would have actually recruited and made offers. How plausible is it that a company will decide to end/spoil a relationship (if it exists in the first place) with JBIMS because they didn't mention the name of the company in their report on insideiim even though they haven't make a single offer?
