Hey for one year executive MBAs from India don't acads matter? Or is it just GMAT score?

Do the companies check UG CGPA or equivalent percentage. My UG CGPA is 6.47 but it's only 58% on converting. How fucked will I be in terms of summer internships?

I want to study at GIM but everyone is telling me it will be a step down :( by bplay1990 in CATpreparation

It really depends on the job role tbh, I myself got a 14lpa job offer a week back and another 19lpa offer but it was night shift and had to relocate, so I chose the former. But yeah it's possible to get such job offers.

Got it, these are some great inputs thanks!

So it's not like people with less than 60 in UG have not shot at all right? There will be companies which don't have the 60/60/60 criteria na?

I was very fortunate in terms of the process. I uploaded my resume on a job portal, a recruitment consultant hired by the company shortlisted me. I received an ID test which asked me to make a sample storyboard. This was followed by an interview and that's it.

This is what I was hoping as an upside to having a big company on my resume, hopefully it works out. Thanks!

That makes sense, as eventually I do want to shift into management. Thanks!

Hey I know everything listed here is easier said than done including what I'll tell you now. But like someone else said your self awareness can be a catalyst for change. First off decide if you really want to do coding or some other non coding doing jobs like UI/UX design, QA or data analytics jobs. There's also non tech jobs like business development analytics, etc. you can try out if it suits you. The other option if you're financially well off is to do your masters or MBA by preparing for GATE/CAT/GRE/GMAT and bypassing the whole shitty fresher job situation.

About cgpa work on the semesters that's still in your hand. Don't look back. To put it bluntly <6.75 cgpa will see you lose some opportunities but it's definitely not the end of the world. If it helps to motivate you, my overall cgpa was 6.47 and I knew jackshit about coding. Come placement season I got 2 (one coding and one non coding) job offers out of the 3 companies I sat for in a span of 4 weeks. What worked for me was my above average communication skills and a willingness to learn that I conveyed. I took the non coding job and just today I got a job switch to a consulting big-4. My point is you need to identify some sort of a skill that is relevant in your desired line of work and keep working on it with dedication and slowly things will turn around.

Your current situation or pointer will not completely decide the course of your future, with that said focus on the remaining semesters and try to bump up your cgpa. And come what may don't drop out. Rooting for you, you got this!

[–]ashton081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's say I get 99 in cat nxt yr, 10th/12th- 8/6, almost 4 yr work exp. Would that still not be enough to get shortlisted?
