@acadfunda
aint u the vijendra jain?, the same guys who replied to my query on the pumba alumni thread?
Although, u've already answered a lot of my queries but I have a few more:
wat was the highest offerd this year , IT in particular?
how much did HCL offer n how much can it offer a non fresher?
Apart from HCL, I dont really see a lot of IT product companies that visited the campus,
I wish to get into hardcore sales n marketing with a IT hardware/software company.
TCS is a solutions provider n is into harcore software development so there aint much scope for a hardcore IT sales/marketing job, I am looking at IT product sales companies
just to make myself clear: I am looking for companies like CISCO, Dell,Oracle.
I know that these companies do not visit pumba, but do companies which offer a similar job profile visit?
the website mentions Dlink amongst the list of companies that students did their summers from, didnt dlink visit ur college for the final placements,

U work as an asst manager with honeywell solutions,how many years of prior wokr ex do u have?

cheers,
frank.

Hi Franki,

No Laptop is not compulsory, but having one does help. Anyways there is a huge Comp/ Internet Lab with adequate computers for all students. Anyways, in my batch a lot of my friends had one and hence we could share them for use. PUMBA is a Wi-Fi Campus and hence getting access to internet is not a problem. Meanwhile an additional feature of the course curriculum is that u will do 3 Mandatory projects (Not Just a summer as in other B-schools). 2 are corporate projects and 1 Social NGO project at the end of 5th Trimester. So that gives a lot of additional learning. Also there will be 20 Foreign Students(IRAN, THAILAND, CHINA, KOREA Etc) which gives cross culture exposure and interaction.

Regards,

Hi Ashwany,
Well the course fees are 39,000 per year. Regarding freshers performance, I myself do not advise freshers to do MBA. You should have atleast 6 months work experience to actually benefit from any MBA course. It always helps to have wrk experience.
And placements are entirely dependent upon the student calibre, if u r good u will be rewarded big time. Companies are there for you to see in this thread, 180 offers is not a joke. 160 Indian students were placed and hence more than 95% of the batch has been placed on Campus (Remaining 17 are foreign students)

regards,
