See, if you draw a pyramid for students getting placed, the base is occupied by Marketing students. Then comes Finance, and then HR & Operations. Most of the companies coming for placements are Marketing companies, and for Finance, it is a bit less as compared to Marketing. Fiance companies recruit candidates for a Marketing profile too, in their company. For ex: Marketing of Financial products. So, we do have core finance companies coming in, and also finance companies which need Marketing roles. Hope this answers your question.

It is free of cost if the expenses for the place where you will be taken to, is within the budget, considering there are 110 odd students. Expenses are accounted on per-head basis. So for us, they charged 3000/- extra. It might not be charged for you.
