Through its organized corporate engagement structure for the PGDM program, GIBS Business School provides students with the opportunity to participate in regular internships and live-projects. The corporate relations and placement teams at GIBS are instrumental in forging new partnerships with a large variety of companies across sectors. The corporate relations and placement teams maintain strong business relationships with all of these organisations through regular engagement and relationship-building activities including guest lectures, corporate meetings, and networking opportunities between current students and alumni.Internships and live-projects are integrated into the PGDM curriculum; therefore, they are mandatory aspects of the PGDM programme. The corporate relations and placement teams will work with organisations to deploy projects that align with the specialisation of the students, such as finance, marketing, human resources, analytics & operations. This systematic approach to continuous provision of practical experience, enables students to apply theoretical business knowledge from the classroom to real-world scenarios throughout their PGDM studies.

GIBS Business School has designed a training method that focuses on placement and prepares students to be successful in both interviewing and in meeting the expectations of corporations. The training begins with a series of finishing-school modules that include; aptitude training, communication skills, group discussions, and mock interviews, all of which will help students feel confident and prepared for a successful interview experience.Other forms of support for students in the preparation process include resume-building workshops, personality development sessions, and corporate etiquette training which all help students effectively present themselves to potential employers during the recruitment process. Students also have the opportunity to attend guest lectures, leadership talks, and interact with industry professionals. By interacting with professionals, students gain an understanding of the expectations an employer will have and what behaviour an employee should demonstrate in the workplace.Through internships, live projects and mentoring from industry experts, students will also have the opportunity to gain valuable work experience and practical exposure so they are well prepared for an interview and, ultimately, a successful career path. This ongoing preparation of students will give them the confidence, skills and professionalism that will be necessary for them to be successful in the interview process as well as in their future corporate careers.

GIBS Business School offers a variety of payment arrangements and scholarship opportunities designed to support students who may be financially challenged. Tuition payments can be made in several equal payments each semester, which allows students an easier way to plan financially than having to pay all tuition costs upfront. GIBS also offers merit-based scholarships and discounting on fees to students with good academic qualifications and high test scores (e.g., CAT/MAT/CMAT/XAT/ATMA/GMAT) as well as demonstrated potential through their admission process. Students with the highest percentiles and consistent academic achievement will have greater access to these scholarship opportunities. The combination of manageable payment plans and merit-based financial aid will make it substantially easier for many students and their families to pursue a high-quality management education. Let me know if you would like to learn more about the qualifications and range of typical scholarships!

Through initiatives like IRE Talks, AI Feast, and similar student-led industry initiatives sponsored by GIBS, students who may be shy and reserved start their journey toward becoming successful leaders through the development of confidence through an incremental, structured, and realistic exposure to the business world, creating their confidence and skills as individuals.Instead of putting students in high-pressure situations as soon as they enter college, these types of events provide a comfortable and supportive environment in which students interact with leaders, company founders, and professors on a more informal but still meaningful level. Students are encouraged to step outside of their comfort zone through participation in panel discussions and listening to the entrepreneurial experiences of others, asking questions during Q&A sessions, and even hosting and/or moderating various segments of events. The experiential exposure gained from attending these events helps students develop communication skills, a clear thinking ability, and a professional presence, as shy students realise their opinions are valuable and performance requires effort and participation, rather than being perfect.The experience of working behind the scenes on event planning, content preparation, and presenting with a group provides students with the tools they need to develop their organisational skills, experience working together as a team, and gain a sense of achievement for the roles they are responsible for filling. Almost as importantly, the new campus environment – with its collaborative area, mentorship from faculty members who are approachable, and regular interaction with representatives from various industries – facilitates these transformations by allowing students to learn in environments that are meaningful, relevant, and visible. With time, these shy students become confident communicators.

GIBS Business School's student community is known for being diverse, open-minded and cooperative. Many students are drawn from many various states, languages and cultures. This diversity provides learners with the opportunity to get new perspectives and create an environment for cross-cultural collaboration, engaging students working together and learning.The school also creates an inclusive atmosphere by forming mixed groups during cultural programs and through social action activities (i.e., clubs). All of these programs allow students to connect on a personal level by expressing who they are as individuals.Culturally, students at GIBS are encouraged to participate in leagues, community service, manage sport orientation and other cultural events, which create a sense of belonging and allow students to build strong connections and maintain open lines of communication with one another. The casp of the surrounding area is multicultural, where individuals come from various ethnicities, speak different languages and have a variety of religious beliefs.Regardless of the campus' diversity concerning the numerous regions of India represented, external reviewers have noted that there remains potential to enhance aspects such as; the number of international students pursuing an education at GIBS; or adding more women into the male-dominated industry.In summary, GIBS is an accepting environment where individuals work together as part of a diverse community while participating in clubs and group functions. Therefore, students learn to develop their individual educational/transitional professional skills as well as their social skills while attending GIBS.

If you plan to join GIBS, make sure you take advantage of all the opportunities available through the institute outside of academics. GIBS is a very practical learning institution, so you should take part in live projects, internships, industry visits, and guest lectures to gain experience outside of the classroom. Also, participate in clubs and events; this will help you develop leadership skills, teamwork skills, and communication skills — all of which are just as important as what you learn in the classroom.In addition, be sure to start preparing for placement from day one. Work on building your aptitude, communication, and presentation skills and develop an impressive resume through completion of certifications and projects. Stay consistent in your efforts, be open to constructive criticism from mentors/faculty, and take advantage of the networking opportunities that come your way through contacts with people in the industry.Students who are actively involved in campus life, participate in extracurricular activities and focus on developing their skills will typically achieve the best results from their time at GIBS.

The GIBS Business School employs an organized approach to secure jobs for students. The school has placement activities that start early throughout the programme and continue until graduates are placed by connecting students with companies through an established and well-defined placement cell.The placement staff provides ongoing assistance through finishing school training modules, resume writing sessions, aptitude testing, interview preparation and mock interviewing programs, which give students the tools necessary to secure employment.The placement office also has strong relationships with employers from many industries and hosts numerous recruiting/placement related events on campus, including pre-placement discussions, campus interviews and job fairs, as well as internships and industry interaction.The placement office has a placement coordinator and a support team of faculty and student representatives, who serve as the bridge between employers and students, facilitating the transfer of information and scheduling interviews.Students typically go through two major placement phases. During the first phase, when a student receives an offer, the student leaves the placement process, thereby giving other students an opportunity to secure.The second major phase of placement allows students to apply for higher-paying or "dream" company positions. By allowing students to apply to other positions, they ultimately have many opportunities to accept more than one offer.The GIBS Business School placement cell has a focus on continuous skill development through well-defined processes, partnerships with employers, and organized staffing events to ensure students have the necessary skills to successfully secure positions through the placement office.
