ISB Students Make it to the Top

The ISB students have been offered several senior management positions such as COO, VP-International Marketing, Head-Marketing, International Country Manager Designates, and others, from leading domestic and international companies. This is a clear indication that companies have given due recognition to both the students' prior work experience and the ISB's efforts in grooming them for senior positions.

Dramatic Career Shifts

Several cases of students who came to the ISB looking for a change in their career after several years of work experience and successfully making career shifts were witnessed this year. Some of the dramatic career shifts include: A student who after several years of owning a detective agency has been offered a Vice President-International Marketing position of a leading healthcare company; an Indian Navy serviceman of several years has also now opted for a job in the healthcare services sector. Other interesting instances of career shift are: a doctor becoming a consultant; a shipping industry professional moving to real estate consulting and several others.

It's NOT All About Money

More than 30 students at the ISB have declined high salary packages in their quest for taking up jobs that find the 'best fit' for them. Many students declined lucrative offers and chose better job profiles. Differentials ranged from Rs. 3 lakhs and went up to about Rs. 26 lakhs depending upon whether the offer rejected was a domestic one or an international posting with a dollar salary. This is a demonstration of the economic confidence that Indians are beginning to feel.

This year's recruitments at the ISB are proof of the ISB edge and reflect how ISB graduates are being treated at-par with the world's best by both Indian and global companies.
