IIM course helps 66 ESM land corporate jobs

AHMEDABAD — All the 66 former defence personnel, who cleared the six-month business management course, have been offered lucrative jobs with annual salaries ranging between Rs2 million to Rs4.5 million.

The course was specially designed for them by the IIM, Ahmedabad. As many as 84 reputed companies queued up on the IIM campus with 304 job offers for retired colonels, wing commanders and squadron leaders who hitherto took home Rs20,000 to Rs 40,000 every month.

Top firms, which absorbed these officers from the Army, Navy and the Air Force — 12 of them women — included the Tatas, RPG Group, Zee Telefilms, Cadila Pharma, ICICI Foundation, etc.

IIM-A director Samir Barua told Khaleej Times the ex-servicemen would begin a second innings to conquer the corporate world by working mainly in fields like administration, human resources development, marketing, corporate communications, strategic planning and designing.
