While entering the final leg of 2014 placements, SCMS Cochin’s campus is full of good news


Ever since its inception in 1992, SCMS has prided itself on its student placement figures. Counted as one of the top MBA colleges in Kerala, SCMS has consistently been producing future managers who are recruited by leading national and international organizations. So far this year, SCMS has seen 45+ companies on campus and the recruitment is still continuing in full-swing.

Amidst the MBA colleges in Kerala, SCMS stands out for its year-on-year stable performance. This is validated by the 23 companies that have come back to the campus and the 19 new companies visiting SCMS already in 2014 for hiring the fresh graduates of Class 2014. These include Deloitte Consulting India Pvt. Ltd., Madura Fashion & Lifestyle, B Braun Medical India Pvt. Ltd., Sutherland Global Services, CMA CGM Shared Services India Pvt. Ltd., TCS, Colgate Palmolive, HCL Infosystems, Whirlpool of India Ltd., KPMG, ITC Ltd., Tata Teleservices, and Allianz Cornhill.

Placement is a distinctly strategized and executed vertical at SCMS, with industry interaction carefully built and nurtured by placement cells and officers in all major cities of the country. Internally, SCMS faculty members and external experts meet individually with the students and offer workshops and programmes in subjects, such as the tailored job search, preparation for job interviews and salary negotiations. They also oversee and evaluate mock interviews. However, the institute has stringent placement criteria and the students come to realize that in today’s competitive world, it is likely that only the top candidates get placed. That is how they learn to prepare themselves tight from the beginning.  This is supported by Unnikrishnan P S from 2011-13 batch, who has been placed with HDFC Bank: “In the current fluctuating and challenging environment, it pays to equip yourself with knowledge and the experience offered at SCMS- Cochin. The academic rigour here equips you sufficiently well to stand out from the rest. ” One reason that SCMS is rated as a top MBA college in Kerala is its state-of-the-art infrastructure. Any student who fully takes advantage of the institute’s training, in addition to the range of facilities, at SCMS-COCHIN with a strong commitment to hard work stands an excellent chance of earning a good placement. The institute stands committed to deliver the best facilities and skills set for all students to get placed. S. Prabaharan of 2011-2013 batch says, “This course, which is designed in consultation with the current industry trends, makes us job ready and gives us a finishing school exposure.”

Students are encouraged to choose and build their own career paths. This year, marketing streams emerged as the strongest in terms of placement. A total of 59 students from a batch of 169 have been placed as of early April; these placements carry an average salary of 4 lakhs per annum. The highest salary offered so far during this year has been 6.5 lakhs per annum. Camaraderie and discipline on the campus help students find their strengths and help them excel in life. “SCMS-Cochin has something that most B-schools today do not have – Discipline,” says Deepjyoti Das. “It has been the single most important factor that has helped me rises in my organization,” he adds further.

SCMS pushes this journey of excellence forward by opening admissions to the 2014-16 Batch. Management aspirants from all over the country may choose from five full-time PGDM programmes that have been especially designed to meet the individual needs of students. The admissions process has been simplified and there are multiple centres for GDPI selection across India. The forms have also been made available online, as well as on campus, and now payments can also be made in multiple modes, including online.
