The premier B-School in India, Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIM A) has declared launched, the process for summer placements for its 2012-14 PGP batch on Wednesday.
With leading companies showing a continued interest in hiring interns in spite of a meltdown, students of the premier B-School are not only optimistic of drawing attractive offers but also expect a rise in stipends by 15-20 per cent during summer placements this year.
The expectations for IIM-A students come following continued interests of leading companies, who made attractive offers during final placements in March this year.
“Students are looking forward to a good summer placement as we had attractive offers during final placements in March,” a member of the student placement committee at IIM Ahmedabad, said.
Members of the student placement committee opined that given the economic scenario, consulting, ecommerce and technology companies will have more to offer than the banks and other financial firms.
In the summer placements last year, out of 379 students, who took part in the summer placement process, only 42 students got overseas opportunities. In 2011, student’s top preference continued to be banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) sector, with 112 students accepting offers in this area. The other sectors that attracted students in high numbers included consulting which had 81 students accepting offers, FMCG with 45 students and IT with 31 accepted offers.
