Campus Placements: The Truth of the Situation.

Many B-schools become lenient toward their admission criteria while admitting students for their PGDM or MBA courses. The logic behind this choice is that the atmosphere at college, the peer group learning, the teachers and the experts will transform the student. Little they realize the truth of an old proverb that ‘you can take a horse to the water but you can’t make him drink it’. Consequentially, these seemingly good B-schools get good companies coming to their campuses but can’t get the 100 percent placement. The biggest huddle is the not the academics but the attitude of the students. 

Once admitted to a good MBA college, students start thinking that they are entitled for a wonderful career and hefty pay package without realizing the responsibility they have to shoulder in order to get to this dream of great job. Their attitude toward the course work, assignments and overall learning becomes careless. This not only becomes a cause of degradation in their skill set but it also stops them in learning new things.

As a student one should realize that a MBA college can give you opportunities of learning, growth and a good career in the form of course work, teachers and job interviews. But utilizing those opportunities for your betterment is your responsibilities. The dream jobs even at the best b-schools in India require extra-ordinary efforts. Students have to put in their heart & soul in improving and refining themselves. Very few people get this kind of opportunity of growth and if you are amongst them, please make its full use by your dedication, hard work, sincerity and discipline.

How to crack Personal interview (PI).

The most tricky and difficult round that students face before getting admission into top business college is the ‘Personal Interview’ round. We can say that it is the most significant and last key component for selection process by the top B- college. A personal interview is aimed at knowing a candidate more intimately - assessing the clarity of thinking process, future goals and the 'fit' with the B-school. It provides the admission committee of a b-school to evaluate students interpersonal and soft skills. Interview discussions generally involve questions on personal goals, work experience, academics, hobbies and current affairs. During the interview, having clarity of thoughts is far more important than answering these questions. So striking a good balance among the various areas should be the objective of one’s interview preparation. Knowing yourself is the most important part of interview preparation. It is not acceptable if a candidate cannot answer questions based on his/her own personality. It would give an impression of an immature or “self – unaware” person. A candidate hence needs to do a lot of soul searching on questions like: “Why you want to do this course? Strengths and Weaknesses, long term/ short term goals. If a person is working for more than six months then questions on work experience will play a role during interview. The obvious areas of questioning are work profile, projects, organization chart of company and where a person fit in. One should be able to give some examples of team work and leadership from employment. Also if a person is working for less than 2 years then he or / she is still supposed to remember some aspects of their education. One need not to study everything, but should know the basics of all the subjects that they have studied. A good barometer would be curriculum till higher secondary. Ideally, having hobbies can really make interviews quite interesting as they can clearly make a distinction between you and the rest. Not having a hobby is certainly negative; but worse is getting grilled for a cited hobby when you do not have one. General Knowledge can be a really vast topic. Common knowledge like the capital of some countries should be known. On a whole one needs to be systematic regarding their preparation, make a check list of what they do not know and work with it. If one is organized, he or she will definitely perform well in their interview.

Prerequisites for MBA Admission.

The MBA course in India fascinates many aspirants, so the number of Management schools offering Masters Degree and Postgraduate diploma (PGDM) in business administration has also expanded. The admissions process for a MBA program varies from b-school to school, although there are some similarities among all of them.

Prerequisites for admission into an MBA program generally include a bachelor’s degree in business administration from an accredited university or college. Most MBA programs do not require a specific undergraduate major. In fact, many programs prefer some diversity in that regard. However, a bachelor’s degree in business can be helpful when prerequisite courses are required.

MBA programs also have course prerequisite requirements to ensure that students possess general knowledge in business disciplines. However, it is not a necessary requirement for all the applicants. Applicants, those who did not take business as major in undergrad will have to take these prerequisites. This incorporates topics related to management, finance, marketing, economics, statistics and mathematics.

An admissions test is a common requirement for MBA programs. The Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) is by far the most common exam. A significant number of schools select the applicants according to the Graduate Records Examination (GRE) test. Whichever test it may be, careful and devoted preparation must be required to get a competitive score. It is important to spend enough time to properly prepare for any MBA entrance exam.

Many MBA programs recommend or even require a certain number of years of work experience. Generally, this is stated as post-MBA college, full-time work experience. Some programs even specify that experience should be increasing in responsibility or managerial in nature. Even though work experience is not explicitly required, it is an advantage to the applicant over others. Once you have met the pre-MBA requirements, then you are ready to apply to an MBA program.
