Summer Internship Placement

The last cut-off of the CAT percentile for PGDMHR was around 88 percentile and for PGDM was around 91-92 percentile. The admission process involved an article written in 15 minutes followed by a Personal Interview. My interview revolved around my graduation and why I want to opt for Human Resources despite having a background in finance. Overall admission process went smoothly and systematically.

We have term exams after every 1.5 months approximately. Exams are quite challenging as exams revolve mostly around case studies and how well are we able to apply our knowledge. Basically, there's nothing right or wrong but how well we are able to put our ideas and are we able to apply the knowledge we learned in class. Exams get a little difficult to crack as if we know the concept we can write the answers easily but if we don't then there's no point in wasting your time on it and if we have written an answer it might turn out to be completely wrong as the concept applied was not correct.

Job roles offered to revolve around Finance, Marketing, HR, Operations, Analytics, Banking and Financial Services, Strategy and General Management, etc. Companies like Capgemini, Infosys, EY, Deloitte, etc visit campus for Summer Internship Placement as well.

The fees for IMI, New Delhi is around 18.34 lakh (excluding hostel) spread over 6 installments. Fees is comparatively high and the only problem is it's campus. IMI do not have a big campus as compared to the fees we are paying. Cost to study in online mode is worst for every college and same with IMI. As online classes are not as effective. Scholarship is provided to students whose family income is less than 8lakh rupees depending on their performance at the time of admission and overall performance. To apply for scholarship, you have to provide proper evidence and papers to prove the same. I didn't apply for a scholarship but this is the scheme the college follows.

We have two big events - Conventus which is held in September. It is an event where we invite some CXO level people from prominent industries where round table discussion happen regarding various areas of interest. Kritva - It is an annual fest spread over 6 weeks from December to February where we have lot of opportunities and events by different clubs and societies. We have 5 committees, 11 clubs and student affair bodies and 11 societies. Every club conducts it's own intra-college as well as inter-college events before and during kritva. We have a separate club of sports where they conduct different activities on different events. Socities take care of other extra-curricular activities like singing, dancing, acting, etc. IMI library has a very good collection and access to students.

The hostel fees include mess charges, etc. Is around 2,18,000 for one year. The fees are made in two installments and rooms are given on a first come first serve basis. All rooms have A/C and rooms are either double sharing or single occupancy rooms. Fees for a hostel are paid accordingly. We do not have much review on meal quality, etc as we are still studying online and we haven't experienced a college hostel yet.

The admission process includes a written test followed by a Personal Interview. The topic for WAT was "Social Responsibility is important for business". Interview questions revolved around GK (Who is our HRD minister, which campaign is launched to stop female foeticide, etc) and graduation questions. Followed by some generic questions like "why are Jain called Jain" After WAT, every student was given an order and an estimated time on when their Interview will happen and the process was systematic.
