madam,

whats the idea of a waitlist how do students placed on a waitlist know if they would be getting admission,,, what is the idea of waitlist? do you'll even consider those in it.. as your admission is on a rolling basis..

have applied twice and have cleared all the rounds and been waitlisted on both the ocations.. not received any mail sayin i was waitlisted, was told so over the phone when i called o inquire... neither was my profiled updated on the website.

Dear madhavan,
Thank you for your message.
As of now we have not yet commenced admissions for our June 2007 intake. We should be doing so shortly and all details regarding our aptitude test, admission procedures etc would be updated on our site very soon.

We endeavour to place each and every student to the best of our ability and so far our track record has been 100% placements. The average salaries for Marketing have been about 8-9 lacs p.a. for the last batch which graduated in June 2006.

I hope all your queries are sorted.

Hi Rutty,
My name is Madhavan and Iam working in Chennai as a Software Engg. I have an experience of 30 months.
Iwas interested in the June 2007 intake of SP Jain Global MBA program.
Can you please provide me the details for the following questions?

1) When does SP Jain conduct the aptitude test for this program?
2) How is the placement scenario in India and abroad in general (I want to do specialization in Marketing)
3) The mean salary

Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your message. Actually this is a wrong notion that companies do not require people year round. Organisations plan their recruitments at a particular point only because most B-schools have a June intake and students graduate around that time. So there would be no issue about placing students who are graduates from the December batch.

Your placements would depend upon how you perform during the interviews.
Average salaries as mentioned on our website are about 8-9 lacs p.a. If you are from the IT sector but have specialised in BM, you may not necessarily be considered as a fresher as your previous work experience will be considered and even banks have IT requirements. Hence your knowledge in BM combined with your work experience in IT should hold you in good stead.
Hope all your concerns have been addressed.

Hi Rutty,

I got an offer for Banking Management for DEC intake

But some of my seniors told me that there might be some placement issues as it is an Odd Batch..
They said that companies generally dont require MBA ppl all round the year as it incurrs a huge overhead in terms of salary ( unlike software engineers)

I would also like to know that would I be considered as a fresher in BM (as I've pursued my engg in IT n I'm working with Infosys, Pune for about 18months). Also, what kind of package can I expect if I perform well?

I hope you will help me in this regard.

Hi,
Your profile sounds good. You may go ahead and apply.
All the best with your application!
Thanks

Hello,
Thank you for your message. As you may have read in my reply to Anuj, while we generally require students to have a first class in theiri academic career, we could be a little flexible on certain counts if the student has an advantage in other areas as we look at the profile as a whole.

Hi,

i am concerned about the 'first class' term that you mentioned.
my engg aggregate is 57% and i have been working at as a techie from 16 months.
very good extra curicullars and my 10th and 12th % is 82. could you please elaborate on how important are academics because ive heard that sp jain gives a lot of weightage to academics.

Hi Anuj,
Please note that we look at a students profile as a whole. Hence we may be flexible on certain criteria if a student is outstanding with other factors.
As for our CAT/XAT percentile we have always maintained that it is 80 percentile (pls check our website) and it was never dropped to 75 percentile . But like I mentioend earlier we are willing to be flexible on certain aspects if a student has other redeeming factors. You may reapply for the June intake as you would have more work exprience on you by then which would push up the quality of your application.
Thank you

Dear Nikhil,
Thank you for your message and interest in our GMBA programme. Just want to bring to your notice that we do NOT run a programme with a specialisation in HR. The closest that we can suggest would be Services Marketing and Management. I advise that you visit our website and take a close look at the specialisations we offer and decide if any would be of interest to you. Our website : S.P.Jain Center of Management, Dubai . Singapore

hi

Myself Nikhil, i have done BMS(Bachelor in Management Studies) from SK SOmaiya College from 2005 batch. I have an 18mnths experience in recruitments and thinking of making my career in HR. i want to know would this global MBA help me making my career in HR as a specialisation.

waiting for your response

Dear Srinivas,
Yes, we wouild be able to place students who have rich work experience laterally. Students are placed taking into account all factors including their work ex, axcademic history, acheivements etc. We have various companies visiting our campuses and they have requirements for multiple positions.
Thank you

Hi ,

I am srinivas and having 5 yrs of Exp . I want to know do you have lateral placements for Experience guys with higher salary levels as compared to Freshers or0- 2 yrs exp people .

thanks
Srinivasa

Dear Ruchita,
Students have gotten placed in India as well at good positions with good pay packages.
The average salaries that you might have seen on our website are for students who have returned to India or stayed back in Dubai.
Frankly, there is no "season" as such when companies require employees, organisations need trained and skilled personnel all year round . Its just that they plan their recruitments around Feb- June as most B-schools in India complete their courses at that point in time. So you need not worry about getting placed if you join the December batch.
Hope I have sorted your queries.
Thanks

Dear Rutty,

Dear Rutty,
Thank you for spending ur prestigious time with this issue. I live in Dubai, I have 2 yrs. of experience and i want to take the june 2007 intake. Could you be more brief about the faculties, placements and the average salary paid to individual dept. I am looking for Marketing or IT Management. If i wish to be placed in India after my graduation, Are the Indian companies coming to Dubai or S'pore campus? if yes, what all companies recruit? Could you plz be more accurate on how many percentage of students get recruited on campus? Thats all for now Mr. Rutty....Looking forward for your prompt reply. Thank you!


with best regards,
Azeem

Hi Rutty

Thanks for taking time off frm ur schedule to answer our queries. I would like to know that the avg salary as mentioned in the SP Jain site is around 8-9L p.a INR.
Is this the avg of indian and foreign salaries combined. If this is the case, then don't you think that the salary being offered in Dubai (or S'pre) is below the avg salary that MBA's earn there!

Cheers
Puneet

Hello !

Great initiative, this....

Can you please provide the following information ?

1 ) Approx Percentage of students from a batch who are placed in India, along with the mean salary, highest and lowest salary, and percentage-wise break-up of jobs in different sectors.

2 ) the above for students placed abroad, along with information regarding how many students were placed in which country.

the SP Jain website has information about the above in a combined manner ( Indian + Foreign placements ). I would appreciate if you could kindly give us information about the placements as mentioned in (1) and (2).

Thanking you in advance,

Regards,
Harshad Karandikar
