The outcome of the placement process clearly demonstrates the strength of the programme and the value that recruiters see in hiring our students for their talent needs at mid to senior level positions. A surge in strategic and growth roles along with several international offers speak of the faith that the recruiters have in the programme. The determination, resilience and commitment shown by the placement team while working in a volatile situation because of the pandemic is commendable. We wish our graduates great success in their careers.”
