I have an experience of 3 yrs in IT industry. Is it worth joining K J Somaiya for MBA, considering placement, faculty and internship ?
Hi Rakesh!
KJ Somaiya is one of the top colleges in the b-school list and its infrastructure, faculty and industry exposure is top notch because of the location. Your IT experience is just work experience and it only matters when you select the specialization you want. If you're planning for a career shift, KJ Somaiya can be the right place to begin at if you have a decent CAT score. KJ being in Mumbai provides ample opportunities while hunting for internships and also during campus placements. Since it has a great corporate connect, there are many guest lectures from the business fraternity that will make sure that you are exposed to the practical issues in the business world.
If you're considering to join KJ, then it is also wise to get in touch with the alumni on LinkedIn as they have a great alumni base working at the top of the corporate ladder. You would get to understand the inside stories of KJ. Since it falls under the set of top private b-schools in India, placements shouldn't be a real problem. Please get in touch with a few online courses to understand which specialization suits you and how you could improve it in before you start college. If you keen on taking up IT management, then check out their placements reports to see how many people have been selected from that field and th kind of companies that have recruited them.
Here are some things to note.
K J Somaiya

- Factors to consider - Fees is low compared to other colleges of the same ranking. The location is a major advantage considering that Mumbai is the financial hub and provides an ample number of opportunities during internships and also placements.

If you have great acads, then you might as well go for CAT once again and aim for IIMs. Good luck and feel free to contact for further queries.
