ISB gives IIMs a run for money
After the prestigious IIMs, it seems that Hyderabad-based Indian School of Business is blipping on the radar of big employers.
Five students from the prestigious Indian School of Business have bagged international jobs worth Rs one crore annually with the highest clocking Rs 1.2 crore.
The highest domestic offer was Rs 44 lakh per annum and the hot sectors at the campus were real estate, consultancy and finance. The manufacturing sector also came calling in a big way.
"The strong message we are getting is infrastructure is really hot. Steel and cement at the moment . Oil and energy are also big and so is health care,” said ISB’s Deputy Dean, Ajit Rangnekar.
ISB salaries have been more or less at par with IIM-A one-year management courses for people with work experience.
Interestingly, despite the compensation difference between domestic and international offers, 90 per cent of the ISB students opted to stay in India.
"We are really bullish on the Indian economy right now as a collective group and a lot of the times the role being offered in India was infinitely more interesting and the career progression graph was also much more accelerated in India,” said ISB graduate Ali Potia.
Five students in the 2007 batch of ISB have chosen to work in the development sector, while 15 others have decided to be entrepreneurs .
The officials from the B-school say this is the first step in the right direction and expect these numbers to shoot up over the next few years.
Take care...
