beeeeeceeeeegeeeee

The first so called hotshot consulting shortlist came out yesterday. With this, the domestic placement season has officially begun. The shortlist is no surprise at all. Most of the dean’s listers find their names in the list. Some other candidates who are not toppers, but have diverse and very interesting profiles have also been shortlisted. The firm is taking the shortlisted ppl out on dinner tomorrow where they will make a pre placement pitch (As if they need to !!).

The other consulting biggie is expected to announce its shortlist next week. Empirical evidence suggests that it would be more or less a photocopy of this list except a few names here and there.

Meanwhile a lot of companies are pouring in for PPTs. There are so many PPTs and job postings happening that it is becoming difficult to keep track. Some of the roles on offer are also very interesting. Term 7 is expected to be fully devoted to placement activities. Going by the number of companies coming to campus for PPTsand the number of companies registered for placements so far, the situation looks good.

The excitement is building up.

BTW, the name of the firm is confidential and therefore I have not mentioned it ;)
