Remarks

Smooth and transparent. It was conducted on a merit basis and was a single day procedure. Results were declared within a month. GD topics were mixed- Current Affairs/General Issues/Business Affairs. Interview was based on current business knowledge, know how of technology and few subject related questions.

Course Curriculum Overview

2.5

Exams were held twice a semester. Difficulty depended on the subject. Few exams demanded more hard work to understand and implement the concepts like- finance, microeconomics etc. Overall, exams were not that tough and the questions were asked only from what was taught in the classroom.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 816000 per year

Internships Opportunities

2.5

Internship opportunities are not so good. Many lands up getting zero stipends. Few companies offered PPO and a lucrative stipend but the intake was very minimal. More or less, would say that the average stipend was near 15000 per month.

Placement Experience

2.5

The placements are decent. One can expect anything between 8 lakh-12 lakh, on average. It also depends on the work experience of the candidate. The industry type of the participating companies was limited. No core jobs were offered.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee is exorbitantly high. ROI is poor given the placement opportunities. Internship opportunities were less and the stipend offered was poor. Final placements were tougher as the participating companies were limited and the offering salary was not so attractive.

Campus Life

3.5

Though the entire course was very hectic, leaving very little time for self or other activities, still we had managed to participate in various clubs like dramatics, music, sports etc. The annual fest is conducted in the month of January.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Rooms had an attached washroom and an accommodation of 3 people in a room. We all had our single beds. As far as food is concerned, it was hygienic and tasty both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes were served. On special occasions, the menu would be different.

Hostel Fee: INR 200000 per year

Interview Experience

Yes, it was an internal part of the selection process. Topics widely ranged from current affairs, business affairs, general topics, issues etc. For preparation, I used to read newspapers and watch business news as much as I can.

My SBS Journey

Placement Experience:

During my time the first company that visited our organization was Naukri.com, and feel proud to say that i got placed in the same organization. I am very happy with my placement. But talking about my peers. Number of companies who visited to our institute was compared to low as per our expectations. Majority of the companies who visited the institute were sales based organizations. Very less companies for finance and HR field. This made a difficult call for students.

Not a dream college but a real one

Placement Experience:

The placement scenerio at our caollege can be described as average overall. Most recruiting company belong to the banking and supply chain sectors. Marketing students generally have better placement opportunities, while finance and HR students do get job, though the package are not very high. Buswiness analytics has limited scope as very few companies visit the campus for the roles in that domain.

Honest College Life Experience .

Placement Experience:

To be honest there are placements but the placements are like no one want to be there it is just something unacceptable for the HR students . The promises the long talks are all false and they doesn't focus on students future and career rather they care for just attendance

KJ Somaiya - A lively campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

I did choose this course as I am genuinely interested in management and if it is healthcare management that makes me excited. There is a different teaching faculty for each and every subject. The faculties are highly qualified market professionals and experts who teach in an extremely interactive and practical way. They are very supportive. There was one exam conducted per semester which included projects and written exams.

Remarks:

No such bad remarks though. As the college is very superior and one can take admission with complete ease as the college faculty, staff, workers are very helpful and there motive is very clear and remarkable. This college surely helps students in grooming and enhancing skill to the top. I would definitely recommend this college to the upcoming students those who are planning to do MBA in order to achieve goals and learn quality skills.

Life at SIIB

Basically, my CAT didn't go as expected. So I couldn't make it to colleges that accept CAT as an entrance. If you look into agribusiness colleges that accept CAT - MANAGE, hyderabad VAMNICOM, Pune NIAM, Jaipur NAARM, hyderabad etc Due to my low score in cat i didn't get into any of these. I also had given SNAP exam through which i applied to SIIB, pune which was one of the best decisions i made back then. The college is excellent. The only thing is since its a private college the fee is bit on a higher side compared to other ABM colleges in India. But in placements and faculty its equally competitive. In fact students here get more exposure due to existence of multiple divisions....Read More

Lets get a deep dive inside SIIB

The admission process comprised of the SNAP Test, followed by the GD-PI Process. The cut-off for Symbiosis Institute of International Business was somewhere between 88-90 percentile. Eligibility Criteraia: Student needs to appear for the SNAP Exam. They should have completed their Graduation or must be in the Final Year of their Graduation. Application forms are available on the college website on the homepage. Once you complete the snap test and get through the cut-off, you are sent a GD-PI Call Letter. Then, you have the option to choose your preferred date and time slot for the GD-PI process. (The process is conducted Online) Next, during the GD-PI process, there are volunteers available to guide and help through the process. It is conducted in a very smooth and efficient manner. Finally, if you are selected, you are sent an admission letter, wherein you need to pay the 1st Semester fees as a confirmation of acceptance before the Program Commencement date of the college....Read More
