Life at GIM Goa

GIM has a good brand name, I wasn’t very sure about the same but my perspective totally changed once I met a lot of GIM alumni in HSBC and saw how they progressed in their careers after graduating from GIM. The best part of GIM is the mornings when you can see from your window and the sky changing a lot of colors in the evening, the view is definitely the best part of your stay in GIM. You are assigned a college faculty as your buddy for 2 years and you are free to talk to him/her about your problems and understand how you should take things forward. You have a counsellor which is available online and offline if you want to talk about things when you are not feeling good mentally or emotionally at your disposal. In MBA you change a lot of friends, owing to change of interests and due to conflicting viewpoints and every student in MBA goes through this phase.

You have a core group throughout 2 years and a lot of temporary people you meet in these 2 years. 2 primary lessons I learnt in MBA, don’t trust people on their face value and relationships have become more fragile than ever it could be. In 2nd year classes function at odd hours and some days you have 1 class and some days you have classes till 10 as well. My typical day starts with getting up at 8;25am for a 9am lecture and getting my breakfast in a 15 minute gap after my 1st lecture.

If you are shortlisted for the Achiever's round at a management institute like Goa Institute of Management, you will receive an email with further instructions. You will have to book your interview slot from the options provided. You will have the choice of attending a lecture with current students or an option without class.

You will be required to reach the campus by 9 am on the day of the interview. You will be directed to a classroom where the document verification process will take place. A random allotment will be made among eight faculties/admin staff responsible for document verification. While filling out the form, you will be asked to write your three best achievements and provide proof for the same. Make sure to write only verifiable achievements.

You will be split into groups of 10-12 candidates for the Group Discussion. There will be two panelists (both faculties at the institute). This will be a mix of Group Interviews and Group Discussions. You will be given a minute to introduce yourself, and the panelists will then ask you to choose a topic for discussion. You will discuss current issues, and a topic will be given based on the work experience of all candidates. For example, "How do you handle Passive vs Aggressive bosses".

Which course is better in Goa institute of management?

Utkarsh DevPGDM - Big Data Analytics from Goa Institute of Management (Graduated 2021)

Goa Institute of Management has 2 regular programs 

  1. PGDM 
  2. PGDM HCM

PGDM: PGDM is its flagship course and is very successful. Its 100% placement percentage is a testament to that. The average salary has been increasing every year and this year stands at INR 12.07 LPA. The companies visiting the campus for recruitment have been loyal by visiting every year. The regular PGDM has much more fees in comparison to PGDM HCM and thus a lower ROI. Also, admission to PGDM is tough owing to tough competition.

PGDM HCM: This program was launched just a few years ago and had few seats. It too boasts of a 100% placement percentage yet its average package at INR 10.40 LPA is lower than PGDM. But some companies come especially for HCM students. The PGDM HCM has fees lower than PGDM and thus offers a higher ROI than regular PGDM. Due to a lack of awareness, the competition is also less tough than PGDM.

Talking about the delivery of the curriculum, the faculty, pedagogy, infrastructure, and facilities are all the same. The students of both programs join together during events. So eventually it’s up to you to decide which course to take.
