Recent placement record only reflects the degree of perfection in our products."

Placement Snapshots (MBA Programme)

The placements across sectors and multiple offers this year lived up to the image and reputation that FMS enjoys in the country. A few snapshots of the placements this year are: -

The top 5 recruiters included HSBC, Standard Chartered, Barclays Bank, BNP Paribas and ICICI with international offers in investment banking, treasury sales, corporate finance, relationship manager, private equity and other niche financial profiles. Consulting giants like McKinsey & Co. and Arthur D. Little also participated in the process.

The process also saw participation from private equity players like Avigo Capital Partners and investment banking firms like Avendus Capital. Other consulting firms like Accenture, KPMG, Ernst & Young (E&Y), Stern Stewart & Co., PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) and Tata Administrative Services (TAS) also participated in the process and made multiple offers. The year witnessed international participation by leading MNCs like FMC Technologies (France), Lufthansa (Germany), MH Alshaya (Kuwait) and Sharaf Group (Dubai). The Finance sector was very well-represented with participation from leading players like ABN Amro, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, IDFC, Yes Bank, Axis Bank, JP Morgan Chase and Lehman Brothers among others.

The other big names included Asian Paints, Britannia, Cadbury, ITC, Motorola, Nestle, Dabur, Pepsi, Godrej, Philips, SAB Miller and GSK. The rise of retail as the sunshine sector for the industry manifested itself in the form of Bharti-Walmart, Reliance, RPG Group, Essar Group & Kuwait-based M H Alshaya offering profiles in this segment. Newer profiles were offered by firms like HT Media, Vodafone and MTV Networks. The IT sector also witnessed a good amount of participation with bigwigs like Microsoft, Capgemini, Cognizant, IBM and HCL Technologies making multiple offers.

    Placement Snapshots (MBA-MS Programme)

    This year proved to be a water-shed year in the placements of the MBA (Management of Services) course. The number of companies that confirmed participation saw a steep rise as did the number of coveted and niche profiles on offer to the 2008 batch of MBA (Management of Services) students.

  • 23% of the students got placed in leading consulting companies like Arthur D. Little, KPMG, IBM Business Consulting and Cognizant Business Consulting.

  • International offers for the MBA (MS) batch were made by Arthur D. Little and Sharaf Group.

     

  • Financial Services continued to be the preferred sector with 46% of the batch accepting offers in financial firms and leading banks. Consulting attracted 21% of the batch, while marketing and IT attracted 22% and 11% of the batch respectively.


  • The major banks recruiting students included HSBC, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank and Yes Bank. Leading financial services companies like Goldman Sachs, Avendus Capital, Stern Stewart & Co, SEBI, Tata Capital, ICRA and ICICI Prudential offered coveted profiles to the students. PepsiCo continued to be a favorite with the students for its marketing profile. Leading companies from the retail and telecom sector including Sharaf Group, Bharti Group, Reliance and Essar Group offered coveted profiles. In addition to companies like Asian Paints and Blowplast, consumer electronics giant Philips recruited for a marketing profile. The IT & IT-enabled Services sector continued to be a sector of choice for many candidates with a prior IT work-experience. GE made 2 offers for its Global Information Management Leadership Program (IMLP). Other major participants included Microsoft, Cognizant, IBM, KPIT Cummins, Wipro Technologies and QAI. HCL Technologies offered a niche Senior Management Trainee (SMT) profile to the students of the batch.

    Off the Beaten Track

    The year also saw students like Neha Juneja decline a plum offer from the coveted Tata Administrative Services (TAS) to form her own venture called aisapaisa.com. The venture is an independent platform for Indian retail investors to come together and aims to give them an unparalleled experience in terms of learning, access to latest market information, collaborating with people with similar financial interests and trading intents; thus, standing true to its tagline: Collaborate, Learn, Educate.

    Another student of the MBA-MS course, Ravi Pokharna, opted out of the placements to pursue his dream of being an entrepreneur. Ravi has presently taken complete control of Delhi operations of PT Education, a national-level firm. With 7 centers in Delhi, and a vibrant staff of 64, opportunities abound for him.

    Final Word

    This placement season saw a lot of students opting for dream profiles and jobs of their choice and, even at times, reject the lucrative offers. As Prof. Madhu Vij, Convenor, Placement Committee, puts it, "The Final Placements 2008 at FMS Delhi bear testimony to the robust and growing Indian corporate sector. The placements displayed in full light the sound academic foundation, strong sense of purpose and an attitude towards excellence of every FMSite. The sheer diversity of the profiles across verticals and sectors this time are indicative of FMS's equity in the industry and the timeless excellence which is its glowing hallmark."

    The placement season is about the fulfillment of dreams of the students and FMS has again managed to achieve the same this year with resounding success.
