One of the events that PMG manages(btw its Professional Management Group).And there are lots more.

As for Globosport, managing sports personalities is just one aspect of their work. They are into sports infrastructure and event management also. They have laid the turf for Aussie open tennis and golf courses etc and manage events such as award functions. Not to forget about their sports academies!

Great Job
heard L, XL and I are struggling with their summers
FMS and K have though completed long time back

haha.. so people want mckinsey to show up again on the 6th day!!
anyway, congratulations to C for a successful placement season. I have friends in IIMs B, C and K so I know that what you guys achieved was pretty amazing

@Shoaib- good to see mild remarks, by the way you know you didnt opt out on first day, you tried on first three days and opted out after that, tell honestly….why didnt you opt out on slot 0 itself???? were you not supposed to make contributions then?? does this sense prevailed after slot 0 only??
And again you are inside the campus so you must know even if there was a sunday, the whole batch was not placed on monday morning, it was placed on tuesday morning. On monday some 106 guys were still there to be placed!!!
And get your stats right or ask placerep how many joined UBI, by this time you very well know i can give all the names too!!! so plz dont tell ppl lie

@Roger- yes some 25-30 guys joined Union Bank Of India
@ Ankit- Can you tell me any of your wingmate who opted out on the slot 0 itself to join family business, as per records of Front Desk no one opted out on first and second day and all people were still in process.
YES I ACCEPT that placing such a massive batch was a challenge and job was very very well done, but why do press release says ALL 407 PLACED??? All know not 407 placed, they can say whole batch placed as you want to count opted out as placed.
And TRUE IIM A could not placed 30 odd guys who opted out and process was run for them after press release too
Guys there are opted out people who are still unable to find jobs i can give their numbers next time if people want to confirm, in the name of Image of IIM C …..just think about frustration of those odd 50 guys still struggling..or remember remarks of one Mr Narender on student board(Chaatne ki itni bhi kya jaldi hai!!!!!)- you will understand the frustations

@ arjun.. just an outside observation.. the press release says 407 ‘took part’ in the process. i don’t know why you are crying over ‘407 placed’ funda. could you be from IIM A/B … who btw have had interesting things in their press release too (IIM B ka to too much tha… from company ‘HUL S&M’ walk outs to interesting ‘apply to everything’ placement policies.. obv that was not going to be covered.. and yeah, i know this cause my cousin is in B)
anyway.. i have a LOT of friends in C.. those who got placed on the first day as well as those who did on the 5th day, and i also personally know one of the guys who opted out on the 3rd day. they all praised the placereps and were very happy.

PS: from what they tell me.. some 20 guys opted out.. 350 ka funda i don’t know!! anyway, be mature about it dude.. people are frustrated with placements everywhere cause they feel they could do better.. cause it all becomes relative. so if you know someone who is frustrated, try and understand where that comes from. the bschool placement season has been fine

@abhi123- i didnt find any mud-slinging, if this kind of healthy debate seems to you as Mud-slinging, my sympathy for you dude!!
@live2die- you are absolutely correct noone was forced but UBI decision was not only because ppl wanted to go to Fin, they find it as a better option left than the other companies i mentioned above. And my concern is also towards those 22-23 hapless souls still(till date) struggling as process had to end(obviously to keep the brand IIM C alive after the announcement of IIM A regarding 4 days ,which was also not true )and they chosed to opt out instead of going for these companies!!
If IIM A and B are fudging their Data(which i know they are doing by hiding their opt outs) it doesnt mean C has to go the same way!! that is only process refinement i expect.Just think what most of(i said most not all) those guys would be thinking when you say all people are placed(see some business news sites), if you still think everyone is happy come to SOAPBOX on 21st!!
I know not everyone can be happy in a process but atleast people can think about how to mend it instead of needless bashing or praising!!!!
P.S.-If someone find it offending or Mud-slinging can avoid the posts, there is no constitution about replying every post. Healthy debaters can put their point across i am keen to listen to

Friends as people are hell bent on hiding the truth in the name of Institute reputation i have nothing more to say, This is my last post.
@amu.kashif- I would always welcome you to discuss this issue on one to one if you really care, there is no prize for detective things and i would love to listen to your views.

@Arjun
1. When there are ppl who are not eligible to be placed at all, then I guess it is not wrong to place them in any company at all less the PSU
2. Do u think most of the ppl who got the placed in the PSB which in your light is so cheap would’ve got a chance to interview at all if they weren’t part of the institute
3. Why are you crying over the salary, c’mon its summer placement which is supposed to be for industry exposure or a pretext for your career so when u get an offer in a field in which you want to work y would you care for other things least of all the salary. My friend who got an offer from UBI is very much satisfied that he has got a Treasury/Risk management role which was his only preferred role.
4. As far as I gather there were many firms lined up even after the batch was placed and the authorities were ready to extend the process should there be anyone who is not placed.

So in all I would say the placement process at IIM Calcutta was one of the best and fair process that happened

I rest my case

@maximum city: dude i can bet that u r nt from a B school. even if u that cannot be a gud one! plz show some sense and dont jump the gun by supporting liars like arjun when you dnt know the reality! u know the colleges u r takn of come under the RTI , hence they cannot fudge their reports even if they want to. so plz TALK SOME SENSE!

@ matrix

if you talk about verbal ability then you are assuming wrong, since all 407 took part in the process is as good as correct, that however is a difefrent thing that they opted out after slot 0.
Even the best b school in the world allows its students to find jobs on their own so what’s wrong if 20 people opted out when they thought they did not get the companies of their choice.
And regarding your point that nothing should be hidden, I don’t think that 20 people opting out is an important matter as if not hiding anything would also mean that the people involved with IIM also reveal their day to day activity like brushing, bathing , sleeping etc just to tell the truth that they brush everyday.
Yes there is always a scope for improvement but that does not mean anyone can say anything without any logic

@ plz tak sense- the whole point of the discussion is that whatever is the truth, let b-schools publish that only. even if one student is misguided by the wrong info provided, then its gross error on part of the b-school in particular & the culture at large. regarding my being at a b-school, i would keep that as a secret right now, as my placements are there in feb’10 & i had already taken enough panga frm place-com. thats why despite having a proper pg id, my posting as a guest. and ya for my info, my college is one among top 10.
