ICICI Business Leadership Programme - Min 3 Yrs Work Ex Required

just got a message from DM-ICICIB NK that, "NU-ICICI MBA Programme - Please email your queries on [email protected]"

Frnds, lets mail them our queries...

I have 2 months of notice, but am waiting for the formal e-mail to drop papers. Can we go ahead and drop papers just by the list??

Hi All,

Some of the common doubts, please add more if any:
  1. Date of joining the campus, is change in joining date possible (considering more than 2 months of notice period).
  2. Confirmation in offer letter, regarding stipend @ 10000 in college & @ 50000 in internship.
  3. Confirmation in offer letter, regarding minimum 15 lacs or above package & minimum grade of Manager-II.
  4. Complete breakup of total investment to be done by us, these 4.5 lacs includes tuition, boarding & library and other miscellaneous expense. Do we need to take care of other expenses (if any) on our own or not.
  5. Choice of internship area & place of posting, if possible.
I am interested in point no. 1 to 4 & can join even at the notice of one week.

But why all of sudden they have sent us a msg of asking queries, instead the msg shoud have said please check your mail for confirmation on dates & other key details.
:oops:

@ Upasana, Satyem, Rahul & Devanshu:
Please update the spreadsheet @ post # 554 with your comments in joining or not joining column.

Thanks.

Guys... as I think as we kept on calling the HR office, so that's why they have message us asking about our queries...
As per my view, should we ask for 1) regarding stipend @ 10000 in college & @ 50000 in internship. 2) regarding minimum 15 lacs or above package & minimum grade of Manager-II because they have already mentioned this information at there website and that's why everyone has gone for the test n interview... If there things were not be there, no one of us will go for this course...

As ICICI is itself a big brand and they will not change the things in-between, otherwise next time it will be very difficult for them to attract talent...

Rest, we can wait for the letters, once we received it, then we can float the queries, otherwise, the clauses and things which they haven't thought of, will come to there mind and may be we can be in loss. So, my suggestion is lets wait for the call letter, and the things they haven't mentioned in it, that we can ask..

Comments plz...

I second that Mohit, even while compiling the points I was in doubt for point # 2 & 3, mine main concern is # 4 regarding hostel fees.

We should wait for the call letters, before writing any mails.

Yes.... I think we should atleast wait for the call letters & then shoot the mails....

I have few more questions...
1)Does the course involve only the faculties of NIIT university or is there any chance that ICICI will be bringing visiting professors to enhance knowledge.
2)Is it that everyone who will complete the course successfully will be given M2 position and 15+ sal or is it will depend upon the experience of the candidate?
3)4.5Lacs loan will cover everything right from tuition fees,study material and loadging n boarding?
4)Course Structure

This is RENUKA KODAVALURU

Guys Here goes my concerns:
.....> Job Location after training and intern location.
......> Domain specialization
.......> will we be accepted in OPEN MARKET(Ofcource we may not get reply for this from icici but anybody plz try to make it clear) :::::
:::::::::::::::ASSUMPTIONS: degree is not much important after 3 yrs of exp(EXPECTED ANSWER) but dere r still companies specific about wheresbouts of our degree

Called icici n they said the same that letters would be in our mailbox by today evening or 2mrw morning..

My main concern is letters...as we would resign based on the details in letters and we all have notice periods.. somebody pls tell them

@ Unarang & others: Same reply from HR that the letters would be available to us by 2day evening or by 2morow morning.... Also, I think these HR guys do not have any in-depth idea about the salaries, specializations, internship locations etc..... Hence, they are avoiding our calls in order to avoid flow of any wrong information to the candidates.....

As every1 is saying, we need to be little more patient and wait for letters and then shoot the mails regarding our queries... It may so happen that there would be replies to some of our queries in the call letters itself...

Called icici n they said the same that letters would be in our mailbox by today evening or 2mrw morning..

My main concern is letters...as we would resign based on the details in letters and we all have notice periods.. somebody pls tell them

When I talked to ICICI HR person in the morning, He told me the same thing that we will receive the call letter by today evening or tomorrow morning...
I told the HR person that we are working professionals and we have to abide by our company rules for the notice period that's why request you to mail the letters as early as possible. He replied "There is no need to worry. The letters are in process and will be mailed soon..."

Guys,
Hope everyone knows that the HR reps who answer the phone are not the decision making guys. Since we were calling them and asking them all the queries for which of course they wont know the answer, they sent us the message to email them our queries. So as Rahul said earlier some of our queries might get answered in the joining letter. Let us wait for it. Then we can send them mails for the un answered questions.Meantime the best way to extract information is through reliable sources within ICICI.Everyone should try to get in touch with some one from middle/senior management through their relatives/friends/college alumni so that we get more info.

cheers
bhaskar.
