Strong Lateral Placement Program

IIMK continued to leverage its strong recruiter relationships and outstanding alumni track-records in putting together an impressive list of lateral placement recruiters - a number of whom also participated in the regular Final Placement process for freshers, in February. Though the lateral placement program has been a popular recruitment option predominantly for IT firms in the past, this year saw increased participation from consulting and financial services firms. Commencing in October and running till the regular Final Placement Process in February, the lateral placement program was a rolling placement process that allowed firms and students with significant prior work experience more flexibility in recruitment.
