The batch had an average work experience of 10 years with 80 per cent of the students having spent an average of five years working abroad. “The placements this year have shown that recruiters consider the IIM-A PGPX programme to be a source of top-notch middle to senior level executive talent. We intend to keep building on this momentum and invest in learning about recruiter needs and preferences,” said Saral Mukherjee, chairman of placements, IIM-A.
The batch attracted a diverse pool of recruiters from large multinational companies and conglomerates to small and medium enterprises and even start-up firms.
