Press Release Hyderabad, 28th January 2004: The Rolling Placements Process at the Indian School of Business started with a bang with over 60% of students in the Class of 2004 receiving offers in just the first fortnight of interviews. The ISB's continued focus on lateral placements has meant that a large number of these offers are for lateral positions. The ISB successfully pioneered the concept of lateral hiring in India. "Our differentiating factor is the prior industry experience that our students bring to the table," said Ajit Rangnekar, Deputy Dean, ISB. "Going by the strong recruiter response, we are confident that this will be yet another excellent placement season for us," he added. Several companies have already visited the ISB in the early days of the Placement Process. Companies that have interviewed so far include names such as Bank of America, BCG, Citibank NA, Coca Cola, Cognizant Technology Solutions, DELL, Deutsche Bank, General Electric, Goldman Sachs, HCL, Hindustan Lever Limited, IBM, Infosys, JP Morgan, LNM Group, McKinsey, Microsoft, Novartis, Reliance Industries, and TSMG among others. More companies will visit the ISB campus through the placement season. The Rolling Placement Process began in October 2003, with the ISB's Career and Alumni Services (CAS) team inviting companies to recruit at the ISB. Companies are invited to meet students through Pre Placement Talks, which took place in November and December 2003. The interviewing process is presently underway, and will continue until March 2004, when the current Class graduates. The ISB's unique, recruiter-friendly Rolling Placement Process, assists organisations to make well-considered hiring decisions for their middle and senior management positions. The extended timeframe of the Process gives recruiters and students adequate time and opportunity to interact with each other, ensuring the best fit for the individual and the organisation.
