Hi, For admission various universities and B schools have already issued their admission notification. You can search online, a few days back i came across the notification of UPES dehradoon which has announced its UPESMET test dates for the MBA admissions. Its MBA Supply chain program is quite popular and last year the placement was also quite good for this branch. For MBA Supply Chain other than UPES you can look for Symbiosis, LPU, Amity etc. but UPES definitely comes on the top among all of these. You can check the details on official website of these bschools. You should keep a tab on the websites of bschools you are targeting for your MBA to apply for their GD/PIs of the basis of your MAT,CAT, XAT scores or apply for their individual tests. Hope this info helps! Good luck :)

Hi Shobha,
Store Management is an integral part of the entire supply chain procedure. Store managers work towards meeting personal and location sales metrics and customer satisfaction standards by maximizing the customer's experience. They are engaged in managing all phases of store operations to ensure maximum sales and profitability.
Retail operations managers are in charge of a lot more than a single store. Often the operations manager is in charge of general oversight for several different retail locations. Having a background in retail, business management or a combination of the two is helpful when seeking this type of position. When considering applying to a retail operations manager opening, check to make sure that your skills meet the basic job requirements.
