In summary - It seems that your desire to do MBA stems more from your strong wish to get out of TCS.. My suggestion - look for other job options/ profiles and keep appearing for CAT/XAT... if you dont make it to a 2 year MBA program .. in the next 3 to 4 year you will be eligible for a one year MBA from one of the IIMs or ISB or AIM ...
Morover,it is not as if every one who makes it to IIMs has super acads .. I have seen- Yes! this year also- some guys who made it with average acads... Look around you .. you will find them

hii guys desperately need some advice- i have got the offer from GLIEMR(pgp energy management 2011-2013).i have around 3 yrs work exp as Software developer in CTS and presently drawing a salary of 3.6 lack p.a i am in a dilemna to whether join it or not considering the pro's and cons
Advantages- Brand name of Great lakes. pretty good summer placements as Psu's like HPCL,BPCl ,IGL, etc came to it. smaller batch size(60)and summer placement offer of 1.5 per student
disadvantages Not aicte recognised course. no infrastructure as its own building is expected 2 be complete by feb next yr. placement package this would be 2nd batch of Energy Management course.So cant guess the type of companies 2 visit the campus
if i reject this offer then considering that the only other convert for me was imt-dubai( but i am nt willing to join it considering ROI of 16 lc).so i will have to write CAT again next year i know the final decision is upto me but i would appreciate any valuable suggestions from you all as currently i am confused.. :oops:
what was your CAT score this year? Was this your first attempt at CAT?
hey puys need ur advice am goin to finish my BE in electronics and telecom this year .i have been placed in accenture .but i really dont wanna do coding.i may have a chance to intern in rediffusion y & r and ad agency but as it is an internship it may not turn into a job...in the mean time i also want to prepare for CAT this year should i take accenture and stick it out and try to study for cat whenever i can/ or should i take the internship and get time to prepare ...if i do will it affect my b school interviews as in why the shift to advertising....
If you feel very strongly about a career in Advertising - rediffusion actually might make a lot of sense. But in case advertising does not figure in your long term goals... then join Accenture.. Ya ...you may have to do coding for sometime.. but that was a choice you made during your campus interviews ...

Hello dear,
LnT infotech is a decent company to work with. As for the training duration it is about 3 months, and after the training is over you might be transfered to another location as per the work requirements, you would get to mark 3 choices but the final decision would be based on requirements only.
No your CTC will not change before the first appraisal cycle.
i wanted to khow can u shed some light upon the bond details? also how often does lnt send people onsite? when will be the nxt appraisal cycle? will the performance of trng b highlighted in fixing my salary of 3l
and lastly......i'm thinking of giving cat this so how's the wrk pressure at lnt

Yaar every thing u asked depends on the kind of project you get.
If you get a project with client side based out of India thn yes you can go onsite(international) within a year or two, but all depends on your project after your training.
The appraisl cycle will only happen next year, and as for the role of training in appraisal it doesnt play a very important role.........
The bond is just a namesake thing, but if your project manager is ok u can leave in between as well.
As for CAT prep it all depends on how devoted you can be for it as you would be required to buy time for it from your ownself to be up for it...
Need some gyan/advice from someone, I have a got a offer frm leading PSU bank at MMG grade 2 , they have offered me four profiles-Treasury and security, credit monitoring, credit appraisal, Risk mgmt
Can someone enlighten me the scope, learning in each profille? I have a bit of idea..but needed some more expert opinion
Treasury - can be trading, sales or midoffice/backoffice Both sales and trading are very highly rewarding and high stress careers. Midoffice will be more towards risk mgmt.
Credit appraisal/monitoring - is a risk mgmt activity. you would be looking at credit notes and evaluating them for sanction (appraisal) or performance (monitoring) Steady career with a wide range of opportunities. Appraisal would be better than monitoring.
Risk mgmt - is most likely portfolio analytics though it could also be market risk/operational risk. Similar to credit appraisal except slightly more macro. Better to do hands on work in credit first.
Hi, I am working as a business analyst in Mu-Sigma,Bangalore since Feb,2011......I have converted the interview of HPCL for the post of executive trainee.......they told me interview that it will not be a routine plant job and u will be put up in marketing roles.........i don't know anything abt this kind of role and moreover should i join HPCL coz kind of work i am doing at mu-sigma is much relevant for my long term goal of doing an MBA.........i got a call from FMS this year but could not convert...........my cat percentile was 98.57..........i will give a shot to cat this year for the last time..........positives abt HPCL are very good pay,benifits of a govt.job etc........Plz give some suggestions............:)

Treasury And Security :: There in you would get to learn things like budgeting and fund management
Credit Monitoring :: think this is self explanatory
Credit Appraisal :: How to manage and appraise capital within the company, about capital leverageing and other aspects
Risk Mgmt :: Have t study copmpanies financial exposures in the different forms of equity and ebt, there by analyse where the co. should move in order to keep a low risk profile.
Here in all the roles as mentioned would be similar but might differ slightly from company to company.
If you plan to make a career in Risk Mgmt. I would personally suggest it is one good profile which would be use across the board, in any and every company.

Hope u r talking taking a PSU bank into consideration and not a company. I think Treasury Mgmt offers better chances than Risk Mgmt altho both r gud. So why r u suggesting Risk Mgmt over Treasury Mgmt. Pls give 2-3 points in support.

Treasury Mgmt. according to my exposure is going to more of an inhoue job with lesser exposure...
In case of Risk Mgmt. Profile one would get the hold of a lot of new things, bcz with every new client you get to see new things. Although every bank employee gets some gyan about risk mgmt but yet a core role would give your higher exposure and with such an exposure it becomes eaisier to switch to different sectors.
All the point might have been limited by the spectrum of knowledge that I have.....

I m currently working in a leading IT firm and in a dilemma as to quit from job for the sake of preparing for CAT 2011. Although I would have more time to prepare while not working; I would like to know what kind of an impact will this create on the later stages of admission process like GD,PI, etc.
Last time I d prepared for about two months while working and just managed 55 percentile and so I m not sure whether I should be doing the same this time as well but with additional no. of mocks or the work exp I have so far should be enough so that I can quit and concetrate fully on CAT.
My Profile: 10th - 82% (CBSE) 12th - 78% (CBSE) B.Tech - 7.6 CGPA IT Exp - 25 Months
it's better not to leave your job Jegath. instead try to find time in weekends and in early morning...but this is my personal advice....after all you are the one who is actually going to take the decision.
