One of the most attractive things about an MBA is the stellar placements and the allure of the paychecks that are offered by various companies. But, most of us are not aware of how these salaries are computed and how much salary does one REALLY take home.
Hello, Class of 2021! You just finished the two most crucial months of your MBA journey. However, this year things were a little different thanks (but no thanks) to COVID-19 and the lockdowns. For most of you, the internship moved online, an arrangement that was mostly unheard of in India before 2020. You didn’t prepare for an online internship when you were giving the summer placement interviews, nor did your recruiters. You are probably the first batch to have experienced something like this. That makes your experience unique. No one knows what the future holds for us. There may be a possibility that “online internship” becomes the new normal. You need to prepare your juniors for that. That’s what this year’s Summer Saga is all about.
The IIM Bangalore final placement report has been released! 432 students of the 2018-2020 MBA batch received a total of 518 offers from top recruiters like Amazon, Bain & Co., BCG, Accenture Strategy, McKinsey & Co., Aditya Birla Group, HUL, and Vodafone, amongst others. The average domestic CTC stood at INR 26.18 LPA, while the average overseas CTC stood at INR 32.10 LPA. These are important highlights from the IIM Bangalore final placement report for the MBA batch of 2020.
I arrived at IIM Shillong starry-eyed and ambitious, and learned the first invaluable MBA lesson on my first day itself- Don’t look back! The moniker ‘Campus in Clouds’ is often enough to give people an idea of what awaits when they spend two years at my alma mater, but let me paint you a brighter picture.
Imagine going for your b-school entrance examination 4 days prior to delivering a child! And continuing studies at a b-school to achieve the career goals you have set out for yourself while attending to a toddler at home. Sounds challenging right?! It indeed was. Meet Tata Steel Sr. Manager HRBP, Sanchita Gupta, who overcame all the odds in her way to pursue her dreams. This is an excerpt from the interview with Sanchita.
It has been a year with India's a la carte business school - the third IIM of the country, i.e., IIM Bangalore. The welcoming, warm, and professional space warped in grey stone and lush green surroundings, IIM Bangalore, has been a dream institution for a soul like me. It was only last year when in June, I entered the hallowed portals of the place known as the #PlaceToB. I penned my thoughts about being captivated by the charm and effuse of this pristine campus in the Silicon Valley of India. Well, known as the Doshi's marvel (as Padma Shri and Pritzker Architecture Prize awardee, B V Doshi is the architect behind this beautiful campus), it is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful colleges in the country and unquestionably the most beautiful IIM campus.
You’ve just landed your dream job from your b-school and can’t wait to start. You’ve bagged a big fat salary, a lofty title, lucrative benefits, and now it’s just time for one last thing: your joining date.
If you were waiting for a sign to start something, this is it. Your time is now.
