THE CONSULTING SECTOR emerged as the top recruiter with 201 offers—nearly 37% of the total—at the Indian Institute of Management Calcutta, as the premier business school achieved 100% placements for its flagship MBA programme of 2025, which concluded on Monday.
Despite challenging market conditions, 456 students took part and received 538 offers from 196 firms.
Boston Consulting Group (BCG) emerged as the top recruiter in management consulting, while Accenture Strategy emerged as the top recruiter in the strategy consulting space. Consulting firms have been recruiting the highest number of MBA graduates this year. For instance, BCG had also emerged as the largest recruiter at IIM Ahmedabad's final placements conducted last month.
The next big domain was marketing and general management with firms like Tata Administrative Services, Aditya Birla Group, RPSG, Zomato, Vedanta, Adani, Coca-Cola, Dabur and Airtel making 145 offers (27%).
