Livemint · 1y

Several startups, including Navi, BlueStone, Addverb, and Erekrut, are recruiting talent from campus placements at business schools, despite a slowdown in private equity and venture capital funding. Financial technology, human resources technology, robotics, and software-as-a-service companies are hiring candidates with competitive compensation. While top-tier management institutes have mostly placed their students, other schools have reached out to startups to complete their placement drives. Startups are offering niche profiles and attractive salaries, ranging from ₹15 lakh to ₹35 lakh on average for management trainees. The number of startups visiting B-schools has decreased this year, prompting colleges to actively seek out these companies for placements.
