Not just rise in salaries, top business schools (B-schools), including leading Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), have also seen international offers touch pre-pandemic levels, backed by technology (tech)-led roles this year.
"IIM Ahmedabad (IIM-A) has seen one of the best placement seasons ever and this change can be attributed to the markets opening up after the pandemic. We reported 100 per cent placements this year as well, with companies from across sectors and geographies recruiting in significantly higher numbers, compared to the previous years," Ankur Sinha, chairperson placements, IIM-A, told Business Standard about the international offers.
Of the 190 firms participating with around 220 different roles in the placement process in 2022 at IIM-A, firms which made the most offers on-campus included Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Accenture, with the former extending 47 roles, including pre-placement offers, and the latter 32.
Similarly, at IIM Bangalore (IIM-B), which saw Accenture (51) and BCG (30) make the highest number of offers, international offers have been better than pre-pandemic levels.
Confirming this, U Dinesh Kumar, chairperson-career development services, IIM-B, attributed the trend to the resurgence in the economy, adding that the international offers were mostly from sectors like consulting, finance, and general management.
