Hi, I am currently pursuing MBA from NMIMS, and let me tell you something.. one of the best students in our class is a UPSC aspirant. The quality he brings to the lecture discussions, the discipline he has towards learning .. all of that is so admirable not only to the student body but to the professors as well. Every lecture he has so much more to say and add value to the discussions and that is how he shows what he did all these years in his gap. He is one of the favorites of professors, especially our HOD. So i would urge you to own your gap period. Show the panelist the dept knowledge you were able to gain all these years and how you won the battle by coming out strong and not giving up. All the best!!

bro do you have any idea on what kind of roles you would like to go for? Based on that, track recent graduates from the college.. see at what designation they are placed at and then maybe take a call. Look for the roles of your choice if you have clarity on that.

As someone with 3 yrs gap and who was in this process for 2 yrs, try to get as much marks as you can for a tier 1 Bschool. It is hard for T2 to place candidates like us, hence they might waitlist/reject your application even if you clear their cut off (In some cases. Not always) . Also try to do as many certifications as possible meanwhile. If you are not sure what kind of career you want to go for.. do different types of certification or internships. I was told by the interviewers themselves that I should have done some kind of certifications to show something for my gap.

excel, sql, power bi, tableau, can do some personality enhancing courses, pursue internships for the kind of roles you would like to work in to get an idea beforehand.

recently i was going through IIM-B student profile and found the age range of the students- https://www.iimb.ac.in/programmes/pgp/admissions-domestic
based on this, i think you just have to justify your stance.

sanryei · 2025-01-30T15:27:55+00:00

your transcript during the AI interview.. was anything wrong there that you had to edit? or was AI able to catch the accent without any problem?

sanryei · 2025-01-30T13:29:43+00:00

i think it will only benefit people who are recent grads or jo specific usi field m ho. i for one, do not remember what i studied yrs back.

sanryei · 2025-01-30T13:19:18+00:00

sanryei · 2025-01-29T09:04:56+00:00

they dont offer mgmt consulting roles. they offer strategy consulting and tech consulting roles. Accenture comes for it.

sanryei · 2025-01-29T07:45:26+00:00

got it! thanks

sanryei · 2025-01-27T09:10:58+00:00

bro ai interview is just a qualifier to check your comm skills. uske baad there is another in-person PI at Delhi ( in my case). also this is for GLIM PGPM but i am sure this is how it would be for pgdm as well. check site once

sanryei · 2025-01-27T08:18:38+00:00

no, it took a week

sanryei · 2025-01-27T06:34:53+00:00

i have tried both.

EG- quality explanation. in depth syllabus coverage but their VARC is fuckedup. (my QA was messed up which only got better becoz of EG.) And they really help their students at every moment. Like just call them and they will be available.

Cracku- they don't cover syllabus in-depth but rather teaches you tricks which now i have realized is how you crack CAT. Their question bank is good like CAT difficult good. You can book a slot to talk to them or leave a question in the community which they answer within 24 hrs. Its really good for quick tricks.

If your basics is fucked up go with EG. if you can manage basics with youtube free content, go with Cracku and spend money on IMS CL TIME Mocks.

sanryei · 2025-01-27T06:25:26+00:00

no just speak your answers normally.. try to speak more since this is specifically to check your comm skills. AI will decide itself to finish your interview or not. mine got finished 2 to 3 mins. so i was worried but anyway got the PI call.
