Symbiosis Institute of Media and Communication Pune Ranking 2026

The internships are provided on monthly basis. In the starting one had to do an internship which was for the non-profit organisation, and after that, we can voluntarily move into anything we like. The internships had to remain brief since it would hamper the semester later on.

I worked with The News Minute and The Hindu Businessline. Other big media companies also frequent the university. Students will have to do two mandatory internships - one summer and one winter. These usually last a period of 6-8 weeks, depending on the company itself.

Internship opportunities drastically reduced as the media industry was hit hard during the first wave. However, the Placement Cell made sure the process continued and students were placed. Organisations which came were creative agencies, branding agencies, market research firms, media corporates and other corporates etc. I got my internship at JioSaavn. Besides a full fledged two month internship, project internships with leading agencies keep coming and it is on the individual to make good use of them.

Placements are decent, PFT, Viacom, Zee are the recruiters to name a few. I got a chance to intern with prime focus technologies in mumbai

Most of the organizations that come for recruitment are agencies - media agencies, digital marketing agency, PR agency; and few corporates. Each company has its own process for selection - be it aptitude test, GD, case study tasks, and Personal Interviews. Placement season begins from November for final year students. The same is for internships as well. There are separate prep and guidance sessions as to how one should go about preparing CV and for interviews.

Being a part of SIMC, i interned with two media houses. Travel plus leisure India and south asia, a lifestyle magazine based in Gurgaon. Newslaundry, a media watch based in New Delhi. Companies did not offer any stipend as such but i was a part of multiple interesting projects which helped me learn more.
