Our CEMS students are selected from students who have completed 1 year of their Post Graduate Programme (MBA equivalent). It is mandatory for IIMC PGP students to do a summer internship as part of the PGP curriculum. The Career Development and Placement office provides complete assistance in arranging recruitment interviews on campus. CEMS students can search for and get their internship during summer placement week in November every year. Placement offices are responsible for coordinating with corporates. The office distributes recruitment brochures, sends information to companies, provides infrastructural facilities to the recruiters and sends CVs of students. Students are also counselled regarding the placement offers they receive. Many internship opportunities are advertised on the IIMC website/student bulletin board, which all students have access to. The CEMS office encourages CEMS students to participate in CEMS Career Forum, e-fairs etc. First continuous full-time employment abroad can also be validated as a CEMS internship. Therefore, CEMS students who are unable to secure an 8 week international internship through the summer placements process can fulfil the requirement by getting a full-time job in international locations through IIMC lateral and final placements process, organized in Feb/March every year. IIMC provides 100% placements to all its PGP students. Presently, we do not offer placement facilities to incoming foreign students. However, we provide networking opportunities to our incoming students with corporates through various events such as Block Seminar, BCSS, RGL, Skill Seminars etc.
