GIBS Business School Placement

At the GIBS Business School, placement preparation starts early on, not just in the last year of school. The school places strong emphasis on continual training so that when students do get placed there is sufficient training at the time the actual placements take place.

• Starting from the first year: Students receive training during the first trimester through programs such as the Finishing School (CPMP) program.
• Continuous skill development: Throughout the entire course, students receive continuous skill development with respect to aptitude, communication, resume writing, and both group discussion (GD) and interview skills.
• Internship-based learning: Before actual placements, all students will have received practical experience through an internship.
• Formation of placement committee: Students can participate in the placement process from the first year, to understand how the process works.
• Timing for actual placements: Placements typically take place on campus starting in the second year (approximately in October) after the students have completed their training.
