A Confident Stride into the Final Placement Week

A third of the Batch of 2008 was rewarded with plush PPOs/PPIs based on their excellent on-the-job performance in their summer internship projects. Macquarie Bank, Hindustan
Unilever, Lehman Brothers, Colgate Palmolive, Kotak Mahindra, Standard Chartered, American Express and Asian Paints are some of the companies that showed keen interest and made lucrative offers in terms of coveted profiles and matching compensation to their summer interns from IIM Indore.

The Lateral Process for the Batch of 2008 commenced on 28th December 2007 and continued until 8th February 2008. Recruiters like Barclays Bank, Lehman Brothers, Standard Chartered Bank, Headstrong, Capgemini and PricewaterhouseCoopers flocked the campus to tap the rich talent at IIM Indore. The offers given either leveraged the candidates' prior work experiences or put them into suitable positions in entirely different domains based on their area of specialization at IIM Indore.

The immense confidence displayed in the lateral candidates at IIM Indore can be ascertained by the kind of roles offered. While one candidate with an experience of a year in advisory services was offered a higher than entry level niche profile with a leading MNC bank, another candidate with five years of IT experience received the highest lateral offer of INR 26 Lakhs per annum for an associate role with a global investment bank.

A Commendable Culmination!

The Batch of 2008 was very focused in their approach towards the final placement process and applied to individual select set of coveted profiles as per areas of interests. A few participants also dared to turn down offers with higher compensation for niche roles carved to their expectations. The current batch was completely placed as per roles of their choice much before the scheduled close of the final placement.
