Rise in Salaries

The salaries offered to IIMA graduates touched new levels. Both domestic and international salaries increased substantially. The average domestic salary increased by 12%. The maximum domestic salary was offered by GECIS for an Assistant Vice-President position.

The maximum international salary offered was in investment banking - US$ 152,000 - by HSBC, London.

Looking to Scale Greater Heights

Recruitments 2005 have once again underscored IIM Ahmedabad's ranking amongst the top B-schools of the world. The successful placement of the larger batch size of 247 students confirms the world-class quality of IIMA graduates. A remarkable feature this year has been the increased diversity of jobs on offer. Also, an extremely successful lateral recruitments process has ensured that students get credit for relevant work experience. The IIMA Recruitment Cell expects this trend to continue, bolstered by increasing salaries, better job profiles and more challenging opportunities across the globe.
