Internship Placements of Students of SPJIMR-Mumbai in Full Swing

Internship Placements for corporate projects at Mumbai-based S. P. Jain Institute of Management & Research (SPJIMR) were hugely successful as the institute effortlessly placed its largest batch yet in the back-drop of a not-so-favourable economic situation.

The entire batch of 164 students was placed on the first day of placements. Signing off with exciting, never-before offered profiles, the PGDM Class of 2009 accentuated the trend that has been seen at SPJIMR.

The placement process, that was spread over 27th and 28th August, ended with participants being offered their dream projects in reputed companies across sectors like Consultancy, Banking, IT, Investment Banking, FMCG, Private Equity, Manufacturing, Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals, Telecom & Media.

Companies participating in the process included Tata Administrative Services (TAS), ING IB, Miebach Consulting, Microsoft, GSK, Tata Capital, E&Y (Business Advisory Services), Deloitte, P&G, HUL, Marico, Cadburys, Nestle, Intel, J&J Consumer, Motorola, HT Media, Capgemini, CTS, Cummins, Aricent, Wipro, IBM, SAP, Edelweiss, Development Bank of Singapore, etc.

SPJIMR also attracted participation for the first time from renowned international firms coming exclusively to SPJIMR. These firms included brand and creative design consultant Landor Associates, leading online auction and shopping website, eBay, and international networking giant, Cisco, which offered coveted roles for the first time across B-schools.

PGDM participants at SPJIMR carry out social projects when the rest of the business schools have summer corporate projects scheduled. It is for this reason that Corporate India comes out with specially designed projects under "Autumns Internship" in the months of September and October. SPJIMR has been known for its innovations in management education. Projects based on its flagship programmes - Development of Corporate Citizenship (DOCC) and Assessment and Development of Managerial Potential (ADMAP), are now being tried at other Indian business schools. It is these reasons that set SPJIMR uniquely apart from other business schools, as clearly endorsed by Corporate India lapping up SPJIMR students for their internships.
