XLRI Summer Placement Prog this year
XLRI Jamshedpur flooded with offers from foreign cos
Arindam Sinha
Jamshedpur, Nov 10 ‘Summer Placements 2006’ at premier B-school Xavier Labour Relations Institute (XLRI) here touched a new high when as many as nine overseas offers were made and accepted for the first time ever, indicating the changing perception of global companies towards Indian managerial talent.
The offers included Union Bank of Switzerland (UBS) at Zurich, the niche division of ERP major SAP America, ICRM, the ICICI International Banking group at Hong Kong and TAS.
The B-School, which has been first among the major management institutions in the country to place 182 first-year students (comprising 122 business management and 60 personnel management & industrial relations students) for summer 2006, also witnessed the highest domestic stipend of Rs 40,000 per month being offered by SAP America followed by the Hay Group offer of Rs 32,000.
Following the trend at XLRI for some years now, consulting firms, including first-time recruiters like Deloitte Consulting, KPMG Consulting, SAP America and Watson Wyatt as well as regulars like Ernst & Young, Hay Group, Hewitt Associates and Mercer picked up as much as 17% of the batch. IBM (20), HLL (11), Deloitte Consulting (9), Cognizant (8), Aditya Birla Group (8) and ICICI Bank (8) were among the highest recruiters.
With new entrants like Google and Motorola picking up four each, the IT/technology sector accounted for 23% of the batch.
However, banking, finance and insurance sector companies ranked among students’ preferences with 34 offers accepted from CitiBank, ICICI Bank, Standard Chartered and Edelweiss Capital among investment bankers. AIG, with six accepted offers, led the insurance sector.
The FMCG/manufacturing sector, which picked up around 26% of the students, saw regulars like Cadbury, Colgate Palmolive, GlaxoSmithKline, Godrej, HLL, ITC, Marico, P&G, Pepsi, Reckitt Benckiser and Seagrams maintaining their faith in the B-School from previous experience.
“The placements have been the best ever on all counts: a significant increase in the portfolio of companies, number of companies visiting the campus for the first time, the diversity of the project profiles as well as the stipend offered,” said Prof Sabyasachi Sengupta, chairperson, placements, XLRI here on Thursday, adding that the “Nine foreign offers for summer internships and the active participation by top consulting firms augur well for the final placements of the senior batch.”
The recruiters included the Aditya Birla Group, Murugappa Group and TAS, with 16 students opting for them.

bose (aka abhishek dasgupta) from the 2002 IR batch has put tremendous fight
to create this...definitely worth a dekko.
Here's a sampling of what to expect.....
Welcome to the first edition of my webmag...
…and it has taken me a while to get here myself!!
I’ve wanted to do this for a while now, create a website; a sort of playground for my creative side. It started 4 years ago at B-school campus, designing a basic photo-sharing website. The site was www.pixelonline.f2s.com and it quickly became a repository of memories for friends at campus, a collection of the good times, the tough times, of that time in our lives. It was hosted on a free server, but its popularity caused some alumni funding to come my way, to create a larger, more comprehensive website with a dedicated server.
As the story continued, www.xlripixel.com went on to become the ‘unofficial official’ website for XLRI …whether one was a new applicant looking for information, or an old student looking for memories and milestones. A lot of work went into that site, from researching the history of XLRI, to keeping abreast of latest developments at campus or in the curriculum.
From there went on to form a little photography club – Pixel …..It’s still very much in action at the XL campus…not so little now of course…a lot of emotions invested there for me! In those days owning a camera and pursuing photography as a hobby was sort of an expensive option, for a kid just out of architecting campus and fresh into B school. I bought my first camera, a Nikon FM 10, with the money from my Summer Internship at Chennai…..and that’s how pixelonline happened.
