How many IIM graduates can claim to be a country head of a company, 2.5 years after graduation? And we are not talking about just another start up. We are talking about Zomato which has started influencing eating out habits of young people in many big cities in the country.
The villages of early civilization came up next to rivers as they provided water for the villages and fertility for the fields. Then the temple became the standard unit found in every Indian village – it was also the tallest building in the village out of respect. Then came the industrial revolution of sorts and cities, with benefits of water supply systems and industrial buildings started coming up anywhere and everywhere. With the evolution of careers and jobs came the need for rejuvenation, recreation and relaxation. This is where the maidan came. Every major city in our country has the maidan in the center of the city. Some have managed to endure while others have breathed their last. One of the several good things the British did was to give the maidans their due importance, as most major Indian cities of today developed and prospered in their era.
We did it last year. We are back again. We are more experienced and have a far better alliance. Hope we can help you!
Mee the 3 graduates from IIM Indore who have decided to jump off the cliff in anticipation of an uncertain but exciting life. It takes a lot of courage to do it and we congratulate them for taking this step. One of them wishes to help rural women by manufacturing and selling sanitary napkins.

Do you ever pay attention to those other people at the Filmfare and IIFA awards ceremonies - the editors, singers, cinematographers, etc? The camera never pans out to them. When a dance performance is on, nobody focuses on a choreographer to see if he is enjoying it. They all try and emulate the stars in dressing up. They think they wear the same long gowns and tuxedos and look the best they would ever do for the rest of the year. And yet there is always easy to tell who is a technician and who is a star. There will be that extra flab somewhere; something remiss about the fitting would stand out; maybe they would be wearing something that is so last season. Now if you are the cool kind who watch the Oscars and Grammys and watch the Indian ones only because it’s on in the living room on a Sunday evening, you would know the Indian stars are pretenders too. Look at a George Clooney or a Rihanna and you would notice that extra make up on Anushka’s eyes and Saifs attempt at pulling off highlights in his hair - so 2010!
When it comes to MBA entrance exams life CMAT, IIFT, SNAP, etc. the knowledge of the heads of important organizations is really helpful. More often than not, you will end up getting couple of questions on these. There is also a reasonable chance that you will get a question of Match-The-Following type where this information would be really useful.
In 2011, over 2500 students graduated from the top B schools in India that we cover. We thought we should build some insight into how people do 18 months after graduation i.e. see how many people switch jobs in the first 18 months after graduation.
