There is one junior with almost 9 years work ex, so if u have the right reasons getting an admission is not an issue
Regarding the placements, it is quite tricky as getting shortlists with 10 years work ex is definetely gonna be tough.........

Even in Laterals companies generally ask for 3-6 years of work ex....so do consider these issues before taking a call

all the best
@gdm4u87 : pls tell me the number of candidates called for HRM & LR

Dude ...taking time out and answering queries on PG is not part of course for Tissians. Appreciate that fact first. Its a tradition we (I can speak for HRM &LR; course) follow and continued by my juniors
would convey about ur doubts to folks from GL course and its upto them to come on PG and answer or not .........Be more discrete in what u write about college and Tissians.....A few students doesn't define TISS

I really don't know how this information will help you in any way preparing for the GDPI
Please do not think about and waste time in such trivial matters and focus on the preparations.
Will nevertheless try and find out.

😃 :)

as mentioned , spoke to some seniors from GL , its up to them now if they want to answer ur queries on PG

All the best for your interview
I am in a bit of dilemma . The matter is that there is a chance of mine getting into a mba institute named TISS( Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai).
i had joined TCS chennai then after 1.5 yrs left that to join a PSU insurance firm.The job is very less and uninteresting, stereotypical, deglamourous to be very frank. At the same time it is hazzard and tension free as govt jobs are.My gross pay is about 38 - 39000 rupees per month after 1.5 years of service (next hike is to come in August). Even though people here are expecting a somewhat good jump when the central government wage revision comes into effect next year. In the last pay revision 5 years ago salaries rose by 7-10000 among various cadres as per the information i could collect from my senior colleagues .

But joining TISS wud ask for my quiting the job.
One more point that I am in a service agreement with my company. Resigning now i.e before 4 yrs of service would mean paying 3.5 lakhs.
I am in a dillema about what to do?
PLEASE HELP.
@AvishekDas : See buddy .. All i can advise is .. firstly .. Its not abt the money .. Hv keen interest in the field of HR .. only then u shld join TISS .. secondly .. money is important .. no doubt .. Bt u will cover it eventually .. just tht ur fees would b 7.5 (4 lacs the actual fees + 3.5 lacs bond .. ) .. which is again awesum when u consider the ROI ..

PS : TISS has EXCELLENT placements ..
