High Technology companies like Apple Inc.,Facebook, Google, Microsoft, IT products and solutions providers like Cognizant, Infosys and Wipro, and E Commerce companies like Amazon, Flipkart and Snapdeal also recruited in large numbers, contributing about  38% of the offers.

The emerging markets story is playing out strongly on the campus this year with several international offers being made. An interesting highlight of the international placements is the participation of companies from Africa.

With several ISB students having prior international work experience, combined with the learning of handling emerging markets, companies are keen to hire them for global positions. International roles offered include locations such as Singapore, China, the Middle East, Africa and Europe.

More offers are expected from marquee firms currently participating in the process in the coming weeks.The trends in the current placements season at ISB reflect the success of the ‘Integrated Placements’ process at the School. With a class size of ~760 students, the One Year Full Time Post Graduate Programme in Management at ISB offers one of the largest pool of top-notch experienced talent in Asia.

While ‘placements weeks’ are common for pre-experience PGDM/ PGP Programmes in India where recruiters pick up students in bulk for entry level roles, MBA programmes in India typically follow a ‘rolling placement’ model, a lateral hiring process that is spread over several months, giving both recruiters and students who have considerable work experience, time to find their best fit.

ISB too follows a system of rolling placements. During this period, the school also supports and encourages students in their independent search efforts to find their preferred careers.
