Placements are very important for PGDM/MBA programs. After two years of hard work and studying, finally the placement season arrives. There are important tips to prepare for PGDM Course placement:
Before The Interview
- Explore about the Organization:Job interview is an important phase of life for a PGDM/MBA aspirant as it decides their career path. Students should be aware of the profile being offered to them. They should know the vision and mission of the company and its history. Generally, the interviewer might also question the mission and vision of the organization.
- Find out about the Package: This step is very important because salary packages differ for various industries. When students face a job interview on campus, recruiters usually declare the expected band of salary that they will be entitled to receive.
- Craft Good CV:Students should craft good CV. Your CV tells for yourself. There are some important things students should do to improve their CV – such as including industrial internships and live industrial projects in their core subject areas. These types of internships provide practical exposure of the concepts and content to talk about in their interviews. Students are advised to go for some certification courses and industry-oriented workshops. These will surely add more value to your CV.
- Punctuality Counts:The first impression is also likely to remain positive if you reach the venue on time or at least half an hour early than the allotted time.
During the Interview
- Strong Communication Skills & Soft Skills:Students should have strong communication skills and good soft skills so that they can express themselves clearly. Having strong communication skills will help management students in their GD as well as PI.
