Xuberance 2006: Fight of a Warrior Two grueling years. Countless deadlines. Varied emotions, from exasperation to frustration. Small victories and big losses. Well, if you think that this is some mumbo-jumbo of a nerd, then kindly beware. What I have just told you all is nothing but the life of a warrior. One who has the sole purpose to fight and to conquer. To help the army of which he is an important part, march on to relinquish the enemy. And everything that hardens his soul, the unshakeable spirit and the battle hardy physique, is learnt not in the confines of the house but in the training grounds. If we consider today's world, then the greatest battle of all is the battle of occupying a consumer's mind. And the warriors are none other than the managers, the corporate bigwigs, the modern day Shahs and Sultans of warfare. And such an army is not something, which happens by chance. The choicest people, the ones who prove their mettle, are allowed to rub shoulders with each other and this is done at places none other than B-schools. Once the warriors are groomed, the managers who have been given a glimpse of the war that they are supposed to fight, they are officially absorbed in the corporate armies. And that's the day that any B-school student waits for with bated breath. The Placement Day. Day 1 Placements for XIMB started today (7th January 2006) for the batch of 2004-2006. Placements for Laterals had already been finished before the above-mentioned date, a fact oft-repeated by the term Day 0 (Zero). The details for the Lateral Placements are as under: Companies, which recruited laterals, were ATOS Origin, JP Morgan, E&Y, McKc, Mindtree Consulting, GenPact, Accenture, ITC Infotech, HP, IBM, Infosys, TCS, iGATE, Wipro Technologies, Progeon, PCS and many more... They gave in a total of 85 offers. The major recruiters for laterals have been Infosys with 8 offers, TCS with 5 and Wipro with 9. The important fact to notice is that these figures do not include the number of Pre-Placement Offers / Interviews (PPOs and PPIs) which amount to 20. The highest international salary package was provided by OLAM International at 85,000 USD. The process for recruiting freshers is underway and the same shall be informed as and when live updates come. Hence, we just have to keep our fingers crossed and wait for the same till evening. Concluded.
