Profile-based calls will be made bearing the following selection criteria in mind:
» Consistency of academic record.
» The relevance of work experience or justification provided for the specialization.
» Versatility and achievements.

If candidates meet the minimum cut-offs, they can become eligible for the second phase of the admissions process at SPJIMR, i.e., profile-based calls. To be eligible for a profile-based call from SPJIMR in 2020, candidates must:
-
Show consistently excellent academic record throughout SSC, HSC and graduation.
-
Have relevant work experience for the specialization they have chosen. Candidates must have work experience in the range of 0-60 months (0-5 years) and not more than that. Only Relevant work experience after graduation will be considered. Internship/training/project work which was a part of the curriculum will not be considered as work experience.
-
Display versatility and remarkable extra-curricular achievements.
Candidates not shortlisted via profile-based calls will receive profile-cum-score-based calls, depending on their performance in CAT/XAT/GMAT and their overall academic profile.
The final list of candidates will be created by taking into account the applicant’s profile, academic record, entrance test scores (CAT/XAT/GMAT), the relevance of work experience (if any), performance in the Written Ability Test and the two rounds of group interviews.
