Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) has witnessed a major resurge in hiring interest across all sectors for the summer placements.
The summer placements for the batch of 2017-19 held between October 29 and November 1 witnessed enhanced participation and higher recruitment by both regular as well as new recruiters across sectors.
All the 401 eligible PGP students were recruited by 130-plus companies within the three recruitment slots.
“The slight downturn that we observed in the final placements of the batch of 2017, just eight months ago, has been corrected by a major resurge in hiring interest across all sectors for the IIMB summer placements,” said Ganesh Prabhu, Chairperson, Career Development Services, IIM Bangalore. Harsha Bhattad, Student Placement Representative at IIM Bangalore, said, “IIMB continues to be the preferred campus for consulting, finance and analytics profiles with many firms increasing their usual number of offers. Marketing offers have also substantially increased this year with greater interest from top recruiters and students in this domain.”
