SIBM Bengaluru is based in south India. It falls under the same category as of FORE School of Management, IFRM Chennai. In terms of placement, ROI, and Faculty, it is one of the top three business schools in Bengaluru.

It has grown rapidly since its inception and has been performing well in its 21 years of existence.

Placement statistics - 2021:

Location:

Another plus point is its location. It provides exposure to the corporate world because of its location in the IT hub.

The batch sizes are small. It has 10 committees and 11 clubs that work on encouraging students on participating and getting involved in college fests and other events, which clearly justifies that it is a student-centric college.

If you are a fresher, most recruiting companies will look for academic consistency. Also, many recruiters set a condition of a minimum of 60% in academics for shortlisting students. So, to improve your CV you have the following options.

• If you are taking Finance, enroll yourself in extra certifications like CFA.
• Participate and try to win competitions organized by companies like Asian Paint’s ‘Canvas’, JP Morgan’s ‘The Deal’, GE’s ‘Genious’, ITC’s ‘Interrobang’, Tata Steel’s ‘Steelothon’, Mahindra’s ‘War Room’, etc.

These competitions are very tough as many students from top B-schools take part in them. But if you manage to win, you will get a Pre Placement Offer (PPO) with a CTC of around 15 LPA. 

Work on your communication skills, recruiters look for students with good communication skills. 

For admission, you don’t need to worry about your 12th score, since there is no such minimum cutoff for it at SIBM Bangalore. But make sure you work on your CV to secure good placements.

Symbiosis Bangalore offers a residential MBA program so you will have to stay on the college campus itself. Although it would be beneficial for you because the college accommodation and food facilities are cheap.

In the 2nd year, you will have late hour classes so the college accommodation will be helpful for you. If you are interested to stay out of the campus then you may have to pay a fine of Rs. 100 per day. Staying on campus will help you in learning, developing teamwork, and developing interpersonal skills. The college campus has a lot of activities, social, educational, cultural, and recreational activities which you will enjoy.

This question is ambiguous, as you need more information about the ‘It’. This could be quitting a job for someone or moving away from your family for someone else. You can only make out if all this will be worth it if you compare all the options available to you.

• In case you currently have a job and are earning about INR 6 to 7 lakhs per annum right now, it is probably not worth it at all. 
• This would not be worth it if you were a fresher either and not if you get any reservations, too.
• If you are looking at operations, you can explore SIOM for this as they have much better infrastructure for operations and maybe even better roles to offer along with good money.
• As far as SIBM is concerned, you can expect participation from companies like Cummins, Droege Group, Deloitte, Credit Suisse, JPMC, Amazon, and Honeywell. 
• Overall, the college has the highest salary of INR 25 LPA with an average package of INR 10.26 LPA.

But, you should know that operations jobs are lesser in number than sales jobs. If you are doing an MBA in operations, you will have to be from a niche college or be from a top-notch business school.
