Summer Placements 2011-13 : JBIMS Mumbai

Ganesh

I have always been perplexed w.r.t JB. Some say its just a bit lower when compared to A,B,C,L,XL while some say it in the A grade not the A++ or A+ grade. The placement report too seems to include names like Mck,Oliver Wyman and boasts of some foreign placement. But how far is this true? And why dont the guys who have graduated from such not-disclosing colleges come forward and clear the myths or the doubts. It is time to clear the air especially when the JMET and FMS has been cancelled. People might get tempted to join if they get low scores in CAT and they would not have any option too. Guys please help to clear the confusion.

Mckinsey and Oliver Wyman did actually recruit during finals. JBIMS students have a good record of getting through during the Batch day (shortlisted guys from IIM I,K,SPJIMR,XLRI,FMS,JBIMS compete for 1-2 places during Mckinsey batch day.) JBIMS has a very rich legacy as it is one of the oldest business schools in India and during a time when Bombay was the only place where business happened in India and so a lot of people from JBIMS joined very good companies in Bombay immediately. Once upon a time it didn't even have reservations. Things have changed rapidly over the last 2 decades but JBIMS alumni ensure they still have very good placements. My personal opinion though is that as far as summer placements for class of 2011-13 go top 5 campuses have been IIM ABCL and FMS Delhi. And if one observes carefully the reports of XLRI and IIM K, there is not a huge gap between the two. In fact in a few sectors IIM K may have done better. But this is my personal opinion.

Aren't Accenture's Business & Management Consulting divisions different? If not, can you spell out the difference in the kind of work each does & the campuses they visit?

Accenture Business Consulting was renamed as Accenture Management Consulting a couple of years ago. And last year, AMC visited A,B,C,XL and FMS for summer internship. This time they added L and JBIMS as well to their list of campuses. It is a Day Zero firm at all campuses except B and C where they visit on second day of the process.
