hmm..

M an EC engineer..
I was grilled about everything on Mobile communication, on linear electronics, Communication fundas, morality issues, Y MBA from SITM..My no. of calls, my CV...N all that regular stuff

In short...Everything on earth was asked(For an EC engineer to know)

Cheers

Then came an agonising wait....It lasted for 4 hours, but SITM's nice canteen made up for it, though it started being conjusted soon.Nyways..
They had a room were they had been displaying the status of PI batchwise.

Don't know y, but my batch was the slowest to move outta the pipeline.
I took that opportunity to interact with SITM to-be seniors.N they were absolutely mind-blowing, to say the least.
I haf'nt seen more co-operative people in any other B-skool..
They even sampled my resume, n conducted a mock PI for me, so sweet of them!!

At the end i was quite confident that I wud make it thru...
Then came 7;00 pm, there were only 8 people left that time.Interviewers of My batch now started taking 15mins per PI...

But came my turn, I was grilled for over an Hour...
Interview was fantastic, to say the least.Faculties were highly specific, direct, courteous n overly intelligent.I must say, amongst my best interviews...

At the end, got a congratulations from them for being selected(They say that I shud'nt disclose this out...But I am doing it after an year, so I may be pardoned).The seniors asked me abt the interview, n i promised to give them a party if I was selected...Sorry people, if U recognise me, please forgive!
I was a liar..I know, but if I had'nt said that, I wud'nt haf got away at that time..!!

Overall, a superb experiance.
Result was out n I made it finally.But did'nt join it...

ATB to all of U..If u wanna ask somethin specific, kindly PM me..

Cheers

hi,
Will take to answer that question.

I had 71 last year, n filled SITM as a mock IIT-D interview..Sorry if I am hurting any feelings, but that is not the intention.
My scheduled timing was 9:00am but coz my bus was late, I could reach till 10:00am..SITM guys were extremely co-operative.They not only allowed me in, but also provisioned so that I am in no hurry n haf time to regroup..

We had a GD first, which was very well planned...
Topic was about advertising n its morality.
Then there was an extempore...Had 5 topics out of which U had to chose 1..

To be continued...

well guys mine score is 65. so heart beat is fast after reading above post. but anyway .
about last year cut off. it was 58. i missed it by one marks. mine was 57. but then after first few round of gd/pi. they called another 100 students on score 57. so i was called for gd/pi in second list, but eventually not able to convert the call. so lets see it this time.

hi
man couls u tell us waht all was asked !! and ur experience as a whole !!!
It would help us prepare!!!

we shall be thankfull to u !!

Hi MBA_ONLY

My friend Who has told you that cutoff is 68+ or it should be 10 marks ahead of what it was last year. I think Nobody has disclosed it and be patient and wait for the result. There are other factors also like workex, extra curr., academics. and I need not to tell u this. Even scmhrd gives calls at lower cutoff considering other factors.

anyway, no pun intended absolutely, but just keep this thing in mind, junta is expecting a call even on 58-59 marks. So better not to spread rumour about cutoff's right now.

just wait n watch.
:neutral:

I didnt intend to hurt nyone but i knw the inside of SITM coz of frnz there and the cutoff is 67(got this news tday) - - How ever dont go by me as the list is not out yet , secondly primary factors would be sound acads + pref to Telecom Engineers ...

Can someone bring anSITM student to answer the doubts?
Its gonna be all abt TELECOM?
will i never be able to switch to other domain?--either to software development or core marketing?

I got 67.5,n there were quiet a few ppl on the other thred(which has vanished) wid score well above than mine.highest being 82.5 !!

There was another thread for SITM--where we posted our score--where has it gone??

No,u cant switch 2 other domain.The diploma awarded in SITM is PGDTM whereas in other places it is PGDm/PGDBM.Hope ur doubt is clear.

CL's cutoffs are traditionally on the higher side! so i wood expect cutoff for SITM to be around 52-55! not much difference frm 59 but it makes up for a lot of candidates! senior PGs are also predicting a cutoff of around 52-55 for SITM!

keep ur fingers crossed! n hope for the best! take care..

Hi guys,
can somebody pls tell me if i have a chance to get a call from SITM witha score of 59.25.....CL says that the cut off sor SITM should be arnd 59....plz throw some light...

do u no it from SITM or u r telling it from ur experience(or from general view regarding mba colleges)?

Can Any1 tell me which option is better 4 SITm-Marketing & Finance/System & Finance.I am really confused as 2 apply 4 which option bcoz it is a telecom & IT specialization institute & I donno whether it wud b right 2 take marketing & Finance,I mean I donno whether I can get placement equally good as Sys & Finance.
My background is Electronics & Telecommunication Engg.
Sum1 plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help!

Buddy Both are equally good and i guess Marketting is hot in the market ...Systems has more of Computer knw and technical stuff.
Placements are equal , with marketing having the highest package always

hey thnx yanky ! ur post really helped me a lot to make up my decision!!

great going

hi guys....
Well SITM is a fairly decent institute.....got good placements....not so good on the infra...but tht applies to all symby inst.except SIBM...faculty is good...core specialization will remain for the telecom sector only........i got thru last year...my SNAP score was 71.....cut off went somewhr around 55.....just as a peice of caution i wud like to throw light on following facts....
- one should join only when you are seriously aiming to mk your career in telecom field. Dont join just for d sake of joining....
- dis course is a specialized course and you will be confined to telecom sector only...so watch out....
anywaz...at d end of d day...I wud rate dis one better than any b-school not in top-20.....all d best.......u can visit following link for more info....

neone...having any kindda idea..what r the designation SITM-ites join as! coz there r some disturbing rumors floating around that SITM alumni get the same job profile as a b.tech does!!

senior PG-ites plzzz....advice !

hi every 1

See its wise to apply to SITM only if u r a telecom engineer , else u will end up dumping ur money for the development of SITM for others sake.Now i hope u ppl get what i am saying .

hey i wud like to knw wether it is gud for ppl frm telecom background to go for sitm or nebdy can go for it
i am not frm telecom background so wat u think n is it true tht the placement tht u get is comparable to the placements which the eclectronics engineers get pls do reply i am confused between SITM n SCIT which one shud i go for
take care

HI Franky!

I heard the job profile that people are getting after telecom management is almost same as what a Electronics/Commu engg gets after his/her BE/BTec. so, it just acts as tag rather then real value addition. Is it true? Can you tell me what were the profile's offered in latest placement week.

I am Electrical engg with 1.5years of exp with one of leading Business house of India, Is there any inclincation in recruitment in campus palcements for Electronics/Communitcation engg or should i get fair chances?

Also, inform me about the list of companies and salaries offered.

Thanks,

Deep

...n why have you direct your questions towards me?
Dude...if you look at the post it is 3 months old,I like you,also wanted information on SITM cos I wanted to get into a gud telecom company but after talking to ppl n lookin at the very technical placements,I have decided against it.Its not for me.I dont wanna specialize soo early in my career.
Frank.

hi ,
i want to know some details about SITM course.
the core/optional subjects offered in SITM seem to be hardcore telecom. i'm an electonics and telecom engg .... can sumone fill me up with wat avenues would be open to me if i decide to take up a course in SITM with specialisation in say finance. wat i would like to know in particular is wat value addition would the course make to me since i already have a basic degree in telecom; as opposed to a finance specialisation from sum other inst.
hope sumone studying/passed out of SITM will be able to help me with this!!

thanks!

i ditto .. some senior plz respond to our queries ..

Also, inform me about the list of companies and salaries offered

you can go thru their placement stats at www.sitm.ac.in

Life @ xxx threads are typically started by students in that school !!! Let it remain that way !! In case you want info on SITM, then make sure the thread title reflects that. You can't drive people to post abt their life unless they want to !!
