On that note, how relevant is the Day Zero concept followed by many B-schools in India?
((Day Zero is the first day in the placements week and B-schools often flaunt the fact that most of their students get placed on this day) I don’t think the `Day Zero’ concept is important. It is perhaps an indication to companies to visit campuses. What is the global recruitment scene like? Domain expertise is in demand globally. Non-Indian companies are excited about super specialisations. Logistics management is one area being favoured globally. Otherwise every country or geography has different needs. In Dubai, financial services, hospitality (managing hotels, events, clubs and airlines), media and marketing (public relations, advertising) and retail management are seeing demand. In Singapore banking and IT are in demand. In India it is retail management.
