This course also has 36 real interview experiences, curated from InsideIIM, available in a single place. And yes, this one is completely free too.

After all this great prep, don't leave anything to chance when it comes to getting noticed by recruiters and peers. One way to do this is by submitting your profile for becoming "India's Most Employable MBA Grad", an initiative that we run every year. 50 students get selected from the hundreds of profiles we receive. Besides sharing these profiles with our partner recruiters, we also do a feature story on each of the 50 candidates. This is a great hack to build your personal brand among recruiters and peers. Find out how you can get on this exclusive list.
And finally, if you're feeling down or lost at any point during the placements process, come back to InsideIIM and read this article or this article, to get some perspective and stay balanced. Sure, campus placements is an important event, but it's just one part of your life. The most important thing (and consequently, also one of the most difficult) during your placement week, is to simply stay true to yourself and not get carried away by the hype. All the best!
