The placement season at New Delhi's top-ranked FORE School of Management is giving the batch of 2014-16 a reason to cheer.
The placement process kicked-off on a positive note with more than 60 per cent of the batch already absorbed by organisations such as HUL, Asian Paints, Deloitte, PWC, E&Y, KPMG, Accenture, Cognizant, Infosys, Bank of America, and State Bank of India.
The average salary package offered to the students is higher than last year's and is likely to recording a jump over the 2015's average salary (₹8.2 lakh).
Several students are being offered over ₹14 lakh. According to Rajneesh Chauhan, the Chairperson of Placements, “The preferred provider organisation (PPO) scene has also improved this year. The first PPO received this year was of more than ₹13 lakh. The approach of solidifying a strategic partnership with corporate is paying off. Given that the cost of pursuing PGDM at FORE has always been on the lower side, this means a payback period of less than one year for a well-placed student!”
Around 100 companies are expected to visit the campus this year.
