While everyone was hopeful that the crisis would conclude by the next placement season in 2021, the second wave of the pandemic hit the country, exacerbating the crisis. So, how were summer and final placements at the IIMs this year? What was the overall recruiter sentiment? Were job offers revoked? Was there a drop in salaries offered or the intake of new joinees?
