Hi saurabh thanx for all the useful information given by you. I am a b.tech (dairy technology). And have a 2 year work ex in dairy sector. My cat score is 86.72 what are my chances to convert the call. Is there any place for people from field like dairy which is nowhere related to banking.

What kinda topic we get to discuss in GDs.are those realted to Banking or Finance......

Now from all my bak bak u might hv got IDEA abt my background........

Ya i am an engineer:bday: by profession hving 18 months of ex in leading MNC.do i hv any chances making it to NIBM..........

What are various parameter used for final selction what are there weightages??:sarcasm:

Here are answers:-

1. Round II consists of one GD of 7 to 10 members, having general topics like reservation etc. and goes on for some 20 odd minutes so be prepared to present your ideas logically and also to accomodate others point of view As a hint I'll suggest to pay attention to the person moderating this GD from NIBM as usually they are people of great repute having some 40+ year of experience in banking/commerce/finance/management teaching........so now you must understand what they look for
2. This is followed by a PI taken by an NIBM representative and somebody from industry (usually executive director of some PSB, in my case it was A.K.Puruwar, then chairman, SBI ) So take the things easy and be rational and honest.
3. Bak bak?? As this is the only post I have seen by you so can't comment on this, but yes if thats the case try reducing it in quantity and increasing the remaining portion in quality.........Me too a engg. and won't like to acknowledge "bak-bak" in generality
4. Weightages question has already been answered a few post above, and about your work experience and all, understand NIBM being a very specific institute is different from general B-Skools, thus make sure you are (can) justifying your career moves.

Yes system is very well defined and they try to create heterogeneous mix of students from the available with the suitability to work in (for) banking industry as guiding principle. I guess basic knowledge of statistics, excel etc. should be considered as advantageous. No official info on weightages is available but I repeat that just don't worry about CAT score after getting a GD/PI call.........All the best!

As Sourabh is busy himself preparing for his GD/PI, lemme answer this on his behalf .............Chances are bright but I only wanna know if you are sure of switching from dairy to banking , and if yes then welcome, the next big expansion will be in rural finance only and you know you can strike gold with mixing these two skills when acquired.

Keep Shooting Puys......And for your GD/PI ....Take it Easy!!

Hi andy sorry bro that thanx was for you only. I thought the first post was from you. Thanx for your encouraging reply. But is there any one in your batch or your seniors. Who is from my field. If yes what type of job profile they have got in placement.

This will be fifth batch passing of PGPBF and I can't comment on somebody exactly from dairy tech. but there were many (4/35 I guess) people from Agriculture background. Told you na, something like dairy tech. plus banking finance in country like India can be deadly career choice in coming future but depends how much and how far one can take that.
All the Best,

Andy

I don't think its required or of much of the help, agar sab pata hi hoga to vo log NIBM mein kya padayeinge, instead work on basics of statistics like mean, median mode concept, plus try hands on excel if possible..........vaise bhi in your case you know where your interview will head towards, I personally belive these are relative easier cases to convert....Enjoy!!

Y the thread so silent. We need to make it bit lively. Can seniors share their gdpi experience. By the way i have counted the no. Of call getters of all centers. The no. Comes to 315. Can the seniors tell us how many seats are there.
