With the ongoing guidance, support and feedback of faculty mentors, industry professionals and the placement cell, GIBS assists students with identifying specific career aspirations and developing a plan for achieving those aspirations.

Corporate leaders and industry mentors at GIBS influence student professional development by connecting students' academic knowledge with the realities of the corporate environment. These professionals assist students in confronting the intricacies of actual business difficulties and understanding the requirements of the sector by offering mentorship sessions, career counseling, and one-on-one meetings.
