The technical proficiency associated with management is taken care through subject related class room training. However there is a gap between what the company expects and what the students as employee can offer. Therefore it is important for students to become industry-ready even before they complete the course.\u00a0<br \/>\nPlacement week was conducted between 9 February 2015 and 13 February 2015 at Gurgaon campus aiming to prepare the students of 1st year- PGDM both for Summer Internship and from campus placements point of view.<br \/>\nThe week started of with an inspiring talk by Mr. Preet Kamal Sodhi from Banking industry who shared his experience on how to be confident and focused in achieving\u00a0the goal.\u00a0<br \/>\nThrough the Sneak Peak series some of\u00a0our Alumni from various industry segments shared their experiences\u00a0on Summer Internship which helped students understand the journey from Internship to final placement and gave them an insight on choosing the right Summer Internship.\u00a0<br \/>\nTEDx videos on \u201cinterview skills\u201d and \u201chow to conduct yourself in a confident manner\u201d were shown to students followed by role play on personal interviews.<br \/>\nStudents\u00a0had profiling session to make them realise their passion in life and the area in which they want to pursue the internship.<br \/>\nThe most common form of evaluating candidate is screening of resumes. Hence it is important to have quality resume.\u00a0Considering the above reasons, a single page standard resume format with IILM logo was shared with the students. The students prepared their resume in the standard format which was later reviewed and signed off by respective mentors.<br \/>\nConnecting with other professionals will help students gain more knowledge and build professional network. LinkedIn seems to be the world\u2019s largest professional network.\u00a0Hence the students were taught how to promote themselves professionally by giving few tips like having a professional profile image, completing the profile and on how to establish the connections in LinkedIn.<br \/>\nWorking in teams is part of the corporate culture. Team having proper communication, good listening and trust amongst other aspects will be successful in accomplishing the task.\u00a0The students therefore had team building activities which was fun learning experience.\u00a0<br \/>\nThe placement week was a good learning experience and the students are being more coherent now in choosing the functional area for summer internship and getting placed as interns.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/custom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/WP_20150209_14_08_49_Pro1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.iilm.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/WP_20150209_14_08_49_Pro1-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"WP_20150209_14_08_49_Pro\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-642\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/custom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/WP_20150210_10_42_51_Pro-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.iilm.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/WP_20150210_10_42_51_Pro-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"WP_20150210_10_42_51_Pro\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-643\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is huge demand for quality manpower as it is extremely important for companies to remain ahead in competition and sustain in business.
