So why do recruiters find FORE as a ‘Talent Mine’? 

According to Prof. Rajneesh Chauhan, Dean, Corporate Relations at FORE School of Management, it has been the ‘quality of candidates’ and ‘skill set that to a great extent matches the dynamic demands of the industry as per the recruiter’s feedback.

Key areas of growth have been fintech, healthcare management and data analytics, and as a result, a curriculum that inclines with the new industry requirements was devised at FORE. Again with the recruiter’s feedback and the experienced faculty team with past corporate and industry exposure.

A significant 49 percent of the batch had prior work experience, while 51 percent were first-time employees.

Students were recommended to critically evaluate the role before accepting offers, as the first offer is not always the best offer.

Some of the companies wherein the students were placed included Asian Paints, ITC, Nestle, Cremica, Nivea, Maruti Suzuki, Royal Enfield, Hero, Jindal Steel and Power, Goldman Sachs, HDFC Bank, Deloitte, KPMG, EY, DHL, Viacom 18, HCL, Capgemini, and Amazon among others.
