Are the IIMs at Ahmedabad Bangalore and Calcutta equally good, especially regarding placements?

Rishabh SinghLives in banglore

Each of these IIMs has developed its unique personality over the years, and each one has its own strengths and weaknesses.

IIMB intakes people with good and relevant work experience, IIMA seeks a good academic record and a bit of humbleness in a candidate, and IIMC looks for strong analytical skills (it has the highest CAT cutoffs).

During placements, companies that want experienced professionals prefer IIMB, IIMA is visited by companies because of its strong alumni list, and IIMC is preferred by the Banking Sector because of the perception that its students are more quantitatively oriented.

The three of them receive almost the same companies during placements. So for a candidate seeking good career opportunities in a certain field, all three IIMs are equally good. It is just that each one has a certain image associated with its brand, and ranks accordingly in the preference lists of recruiters.

Which college has better placements, IIM-A or IIM-B (IIM Ahmedabad)? Why so?

Pratik ParikhLives in Bangalore

IIM Ahmedabad is concerned with the diversity of its pupils. As a result, they must admit a specific number of students from each stream. This aids students' general growth by allowing them to learn about what their friends and colleagues have already studied. As a result, by the conclusion of the first year, the students here have gained knowledge in a variety of new areas and have narrowed their attention to an area of interest.

Though the placement percentage can certainly exceed 95%, IIM A students develop a sense of entrepreneurship in this manner due to their capacity to take risks.

As a result, many of them reject employment offers with six-figure salaries and opt for a start-up due to their leadership abilities. We have several successful entrepreneurs from IIM A.

Surprisingly, IIM A also leads in placement chances, even though placements at IIM B are nearly identical. However, IIM A now offers the best placements.

There are a couple of steps involved in the placement process at IIM Bangalore, which are listed as follows:

Companies come to college to perform pre-placement talks, when they introduce themselves, explain the job roles, and answer students' questions.
Students must send their resumes to the companies they're interested in. Companies then shortlist individuals based on their resumes.
Shortlisting: Companies analyse resumes to select candidates for the next round, which may include group discussions (GD), written ability tests (WAT), and personal interviews. The criteria for shortlisting vary depending on the company’s requirements.
During the selection process, the company evaluates the candidate's communication skills, knowledge of the subject, attitude, and problem-solving skills.
Based on their performance during the selection process, companies offer jobs to individuals they want to recruit. Candidates have the choice of accepting or declining them.
