Speaking on placements, Fr. Christie, Director, LIBA said, “LIBA always enjoys the pleasure of 100% placement since inception and in the recent years, both the number of firms and the quality of profiles have been continuously improving. This year we witnessed high-profile job placements in financial sector such as Investment Banking and Treasury Banking. These job profiles require not only MBA grads but market-ready change agents who are capable of creating new knowledge for tomorrow’s business needs. We are happy that LIBA has been able to create such change managers and prepare them to fulfill the market needs.” He added, “More marketing job offers were made than sales, this year. LIBA saw many new firms participating from sectors like pharmaceutical and online venture companies. We were delighted to have more number of repeat recruiters which only shows that LIBA students have continued to deliver the best performance at workplace” With the recent introduction of Social Media Marketing as an elective for its esteemed 2 year full time MBA programme LIBA not only became the first college in India and third in the world to offer so but also bagged placement this season in that space.
The batch also saw 3 students opting out of placements to start their own firm, treading on the path of entrepreneurship. Major companies that visited the campus include ICICI, Infosys, Cognizant Technology Solutions, Deloitte, besides, Yes Bank, KU Learn and Ramco System being the first time recruiters. LIBA has always ensured that students are imbibed with ethical lessons while creating the change makers of tomorrow and is probably the reason behind LIBA’s receiving overwhelming response with quality and competent job profiles from diverse industry sectors.
