The final placement report for batches 2014-16, at FORE School of Management witnessed highest domestic CTC of INR 21 lacs per annum and average CTC of INR 9 lacs per annum for the 213 students from PGDM and PGDM International Business. The placement figures revealed a higher median CTC and multiple job offers for the students. Apart from the traditional recruiters from FMCG, IT/ITeS, Manufacturing, Banking and Consulting domains, there has been e-commerce, Unicorns and tech start-ups recruiting from the campus.

According to Prof. Rajneesh Chauhan, Chairman Placements at FORE, “With the relatively low fee at FORE (compared to peer group), the Return on Investment continues to remain high and the payback period of 15 months, much shorter.”

At FORE the placement is never a hurried-through process as the first offer need not be the best offer. Students receiving offers of INR 7 Lacs per annum or lower were allowed to sit for subsequent companies.
“Our attempt has always been to mentor the students to have patience and critically evaluate the role and salary offered instead of grabbing whatever offers comes by. Our objective has always been to see that the students’ get their best possible match in placement offers, keeping in mind - the job competency and the individual’s passion and craving. It should be a win-win situation for the student as well as the recruiter”, said Dr. Jitendra K Das, Director, FORE.
