Unlike some B-schools and Engg. schools, there is no pay variances between campuses as long as you make it for the same program. That is to say whether you get selected from IHM Mumbai, Pusa, Chennai, or Shimla, if you make it to say OCLD, your pay structure remains the same.

Other than hotels, there are other industries too that come in for campus recruitments - QSRs, Travel firms, Airlines, Retail, Infrastructure management, BPOs, etc.

It is important to understand that IHM placements are not about who pays the best, in general, they all pay more or less the same, but it is about what your placement can do to your chosen career line in the next 5 years.
