Institute for Financial Management and Research (IFMR), Chennai, completed its placement process for the students of three post graduate programs namely PGDM, PGDM-Financial Engineering & PGDM-Development & Sustainable Finance. While a number of companies in the country are going slow on campus recruitments in the wake of a slowing domestic economy and the global economic crisis, impact was never seen at IFMR Business school, with major recruiters from different sectors like BFSI, IT , Consultancy, FMCG, Manufacturing etc picking the cream of the campus. Recruiters were keen to spend time with students to find the best employees for their companies. Candidates too had a plethora of options to select the best company to start their career. 16 companies made 80 offers to the students- many of them recruited for mid-level management positions.
Some of the new recruiters this year were Nomura, iGate , HCL Axon, Industrial Mineral Corp etc, this in addition to the list of various regular recruiters visiting our campus.
