It seems you are unsure about the branch you are interested in. Both PGDM and HR are diverse branches and one needs to first determine the field they are interested in only then they can make a sound decision. 

If you are interested in HR, then choose XIMB HR without any second thoughts. It's the best HR program in the country. However, it's important to note that in this field your academics and profile building matter more than anything. Xavier School of HRM will provide ample opportunities for you. 

An MBA in HR requires you to scale up for which you need a better skill set and a better learning experience that you can get at XIMB and not Tapni. However, if you are unsure of your interests, go for a PGDM in Tapmi. 

Here is a brief overview of these branches

Is IIIT Guwahati's placement stats really fake and incomplete?

AK
Akash Khanna Posted On : June 1st, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (2022)

The credibility of certain placement stats attached to IIIT Guwahati is a whole different idea that various people clearly do not grasp. One of my friends, being part of the institute, has shed light on the topic. Here is a brief approach to it,

  1. Several graduates join start-ups. The infrastructure is simple. Companies have their own starting point. 
  2. Computer engineers mainly join start-ups because they want to put growth in their innovations.
  3. IIIT Guwahati provides students with degrees, skills, and required education to pursue jobs. They do not strain their students to take up jobs in sectors that they are not willing to take otherwise.
  4. Students should take up job seats in well-known companies with their skills. They have the freedom to choose what they want to pursue, whether it is a well-renowned IT sector or a start-up they either want to establish or be part of.

Having said that, when an authority updates or posts placement stats, they are diligently verified. Apart from any small mistake, the information provided is approved. After the first round of verification, it undergoes the second from the director of the institute. 

You should primarily understand whether or not the student has taken up their job in either an IT giant or a start-up.

Studied at Calcutta University (2019)

As one of my cousins studied at IET Lucknow, I might be able to answer your question. According to him, IET Lucknow does not have a good placement record. Very few students actually get placed from the on-campus placement. 

  • CSE and IT only have the best reputation and demand among students.
  • Hardly one or two students get job opportunities by Adobe and HSBC, they tend to offer better packages.
  • There are very few placement opportunities for Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical departments.
  • There are a few core companies visiting the campus during placements.
  • The college is mainly dependent on mass recruiters like TCS, who offer packages around 3.5 LPA.
  • If you are enthusiastic about CAT or GATE exams, then only choose this college.
  • The GATE results of Electronics and Instrumentation and Chemical are great.
Categories IET Lucknow
Lowest Package INR 6 LPA
Median Package (UG) INR 15 LPA
Highest Package INR 24 LPA
No. of Offers 100+

After an MBA from a 2 or 3 tier college, like NMIMS Bangalore or GLIM Chennai, what kind of profile and salary can I expect? Can I get a mid-level management position right after graduating?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : May 18th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

It varies depending on the individual's skills, experience, and the reputation of the college they have graduated from. The perception of a college can differ from one company to another. For example, Amazon might consider GLIM Chennai as a tier 1 college while Deloitte might consider it tier 2. The reputation of a college is subjective and depends on the perspective of the employer.

Regarding job roles, there are many possibilities after completing an MBA. If you are looking for mid-level management roles, it depends on what type of management you are seeking. If you are looking for people management or just a seat at the table, then any college can provide this opportunity, provided the companies that visit the college for placement match your expectations.

However, strategic business decision-making roles are rare. No employer would hire someone without experience, regardless of academic tier. A strong track record can lead to these roles. Depending on talents, experience, and the college's reputation, an MBA from a 2 or 3 tier college can open up many professional prospects, including mid-level management roles.

Is it worth joining IIM Indore's EPGP programme keeping in mind the placements?

IR
Ipshita Roy Posted On : September 7th, 2021
Indian Institute of Management Indore

The EPGP Programme was established in the year 2002 at IIM Indore and has produced a great number of alumni since then. The graduated alumni have been performing remarkably well in their fields. The track record set by them is exceptional.

The EPGP course content at IIM Indore is compressed, precise and the learning process is highly based on real-life developments and circumstances. It is one of the most effective ways of learning. 

If you have a non-IT background experience of 5-7 years, then you are highly likely to land a good placement. A salary package ranges up to 25 LPA. 

Even a candidate with 7 years and above experience would gain no instant financial advancement except some knowledge and academic qualification. You should not hope to acquire the benefits of this degree steadily. The IIM tag is kind of a long-term investment and would help you in getting through the corporate sectors with its name itself.
