Great Lakes continued its journey towards being one of the best Business

Schools in India with a successful campus recruitment season that concluded on

5th Feb’ 2007. In its third year, Great Lakes’ was able to achieve, what most BSchools

would only dream of. Not just 100% placements but each and every

Great Laker was placed with the choicest of companies, desired profiles and

most importantly, deserved compensations and benefits.

With companies competing to recruit Great Lakers, the entire batch was placed

within hours, with quite a few recruiters going back empty handed. This clearly

demonstrates the faith the corporate world has put in Great Lakes’ growing

brand equity. Among the praises showered by most of the recruiters visiting

Great Lakes, one comment seemed to be common from all of them, that Great

Lakers performance was far above their expectations and hence they ended up

making more offers than they anticipated making on Great Lakes campus.

Companies like British Petroleum made in all 4 offers to Great Lakes students,

which is almost half the number of offers they anticipate to make across all

Indian B-School campuses this year. They were so impressed with a student’s

performance here that they went ahead and created a profile in Strategic

Planning for this Great Laker. Infosys, one of the star recruiters, offered a

profile, which has never been given in any Business School campus in India so

far. Computer Science Corporation visiting Great Lakes for the first time was

highly impressed with the quality of students and ended up giving more than a

dozen offers.

“Placements 2007” at Great Lakes is just another feather in its cap, and yet

another step forward in its journey towards being the Best of B-Schools.
