Hi Guys/ Gals,
Posted the below message in a separate thread But needed some urgent advise. So posting it again here
It has been now 18 months for me in TCS. I passed Btech in 2003
I have got final selection call from MIB ( IMT ). Need to make my decision in 1 week. They are asking for about 1.2 lakh as non refundable fees to confirm the seat.
The first batch of MIB ( Master in International Business ) started last year. So they are now in first year only. So no news of placment for MIB. Only speculations can be made.
The flagship program of IMT , PGDBM has average placement of 5.9 written on their site.
So assuming the placement of MIB happens with PGDBM, average salry must go to around atleast 4.
The course of MIB is good ( as I see it in brochure )
Help me to make a decision. I need to do this in 1 week
Age as of now is no barrier ( 1 or 2 years delay is O.K. for IIMs )
But then who in the forum is 100 % confident to track IIMs next year ( May be worser than today )
And if you see it in this way .. Joining MIB this year. Getting a job of around 4.5 ( which is very much possible considering IMT's reputation and my 18 months experience )
Working for 1 year and then switching job and getting 6.5.
This would as I would get if I get through IIM next year.
In the former case, I would have 1 year xtra experience.
Some Serious thoughts pls
And one more help.
Was the HR batch of IMT which placed itself this year was the first batch ??
And what was the highest, median and average, minimum salaries for HR batch and PGDBM batch ?
What the real figures for salary ( Every institite including IIMs boast their salaraies BUt as of now concerned with only IMT ) ??
Thx
