As the placement season kicks
off, there is a whole lot of frenzy about the preparations, the company to
target, the required competency, meeting the criteria. Everyone comes across a
whole lot of questions and found themselves confounded into the large sea.
Bereft of proper guidance, I thought of writing a small article on companies to
target in the upcoming placement season. My choice is based on an assumption
that these companies would be visiting the campus this year too and it may vary
accordingly.
Let’s look at the list below:
1. S&P CAPITAL IQ: Setting criteria of bare minimum of
70% in high school and higher secondary, this company offers Research Associate
profile. Hailed as a behemoth in its own field, this company should be the best
bet for people aspiring to make their forays into corporate world. Having been
to the last round of this company, I can surely say it requires sound knowledge
of financial terminologies and basics to crack the company. The selections are
not huge but the one who gets selected will break the jinx of IMS. So keep your
head high, I am waiting for that guy to unfurl the flag of IMS.
2. UJJIVAN FINANCIAL SERVICES: A micro-finance company and one of the best
places to work in Economic Times Survey, this company comes with the profile of
Management Trainee and has a good reputation in the market. The advantage with
the profile is that you will get a lot of responsibilities and anyone
considering a long-term future in the company should focus on it. You might
have tough time initially if you don’t like the job. Hence, detail about the
profile from the seniors’ working there before spoiling a seat.
3. DELOITTE US INDIA: Only an option for Commerce students,
this is yet another bet for people aspiring to have long-term stint in the
corporate world. The profile offered is Tax Consultant where in you will be
assigned to work for US Taxation and its regulations. A sound accounting
knowledge and good communication skills is a must to crack this company. No
compromise on communication skills though.
4. COMPUTER SCIENCE CORPORATION: Offering a profile of
Business Analyst, CSC demands a sound knowledge of Insurance concepts. The
profile is closely related with Insurance and hence, it is the bare minimum
competency. The written test is quite tough but with good preparations, life
can be easier on D-day. The location is possibly Indore but it may vary.
5. MAHINDRA FINANCE: The profile offered is Management
Trainee and mostly in MP&CG, this company is a well-known organization in
its sector. There might be tough days initially as the job is scattered across
field and office work, people aspiring to have a white-collar job should wait
and given next person a chance to enter into this prestigious organization.
I would love to add L&T Finance
into this list but their criteria can be different and hence, it should be
looked upon. These are the companies which, according to me, should be the one
to target. But, no job or no profile is petty if you love the work. So, keep
your heads high, stay away from negative people and focus not on the basis of
money, but look into futuristic terms. Because:
“Don’t do anything which does not have a futuristic potential…….”
(P.S: The views are personal and may differ from person to person. Also, the list is not rank-wise because i am no one to rank companies.)
