See What Anmol Glira from the batch of 2024 has to say about GIM Goa Placements 2024
“The placement season is in full swing and every other course is planning to get the whole batch to get placed by January. Despite a slow economy, a lot of big brands came to campus and the number of hires were less but it showed that the industry believes in the talent that is created by GIM every year. All the placement related activities are handled by the students during a rigorous selection process and there is absolutely no involvement by the college administration towards the same which gives some students a lot of power in hand.”
Placements at GIM Goa
It teaches you a lot about your own personality as well as your strengths and weaknesses. I got placed with HSBC as a Strategic Intern for my SIP, I was pretty happy with HSBC overall functioning but felt the responsibilities could have been better but the connections I made were for lifetime so can’t complain. In my finals I am placed in a Product role with a company and absolutely can’t complain with the role as very few product roles come to campus.
Life at GIM Goa
GIM has a good brand name, I wasn’t very sure about the same but my perspective totally changed once I met a lot of GIM alumni in HSBC and saw how they progressed in their careers after graduating from GIM. The best part of GIM is the mornings when you can see from your window and the sky changing a lot of colors in the evening, the view is definitely the best part of your stay in GIM. You are assigned a college faculty as your buddy for 2 years and you are free to talk to him/her about your problems and understand how you should take things forward. You have a counsellor which is available online and offline if you want to talk about things when you are not feeling good mentally or emotionally at your disposal. In MBA you change a lot of friends, owing to change of interests and due to conflicting viewpoints and every student in MBA goes through this phase.
GIM Goa Classroom
You have a core group throughout 2 years and a lot of temporary people you meet in these 2 years. 2 primary lessons I learnt in MBA, don’t trust people on their face value and relationships have become more fragile than ever it could be. In 2nd year classes function at odd hours and some days you have 1 class and some days you have classes till 10 as well. My typical day starts with getting up at 8;25am for a 9am lecture and getting my breakfast in a 15 minute gap after my 1st lecture.
GIM Goa Students Participating in Sports Activities
GIM cannot function without our Jaggu bhaiya store who helps to solve most of our munching and hygiene products and trust me his store has every possible flavour of chips available. At GIM we have specialised labs catering to the practical aspect of MBA curriculum, which are available for students 24*7 and for Big Data Analytics students, we have labs where we could access every tool be it R, Python, Power Bi, Hadoop and the like for practice in class and even after classes.
