The scope for jobs in any city can be gauged by big names in industry setting up shop there. Hyderabad’s top labels are:  Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook and Amazon which all operate within the IT segment and even Swedish furniture and home furnishing giant IKEA.

In the last six years or so Hyderabad has become India’s fastest growing technological hub, overtaking even Bengaluru. If infrastructure defines a city’s scope for becoming a hub for top end jobs, Hyderabad is your one stop destination for job and career growth. The world’s largest Mass Rapid Transport system in PPP mode is coming up in Hyderabad which will give a big push for connectivity. This will, in turn, give rise to more office space and as a result more industries will come flocking to Hyderabad, boosting employment scope.

For a management graduate with a general MBA or a specialised MBA, Hyderabad, the capital of Telangana state offers more than one asks for.  Naturally the MBA Colleges in Hyderabad are going all out to attract students by giving a lot of attention to placements.

You can judge an MBA college by going through its placement record for the last year.  Go through it with a scanner and find out the job roles offered, profile of companies visiting the campus. You can either go through the MBA college’s website or talk to students who recently passed out from there.

One of the short-cuts for this is to look up ranking of MBA college by reputed agencies like the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) or by respected private agencies like Careers360.  A good rank in these rankings mean the MBA college is good in placements too because placements get good weightage when these ranking agencies prepare the overall score.

This exercise will help you get an objective picture of the MBA college when it comes to placements because otherwise there is a chance that you fall for its tall claims.

However, it is important that you know what is the average or median salary offered at the MBA college where you want to study. The median salary is the average salary that an MBA candidate receives across the MBA batch for the current year. You must also collect the figures for the percentage of students of a class placed to understand the placement data. Remember, some of the students may not attend campus placement because they may want to join their family businesses or take up further studies.

Do check out the NIRF (https://www.nirfindia.org/Home) ranking or log on to https://www.careers360.com/compare-colleges to choose between MBA colleges in terms of placements.

Indian School of Business, Hyderabad Campus, which has a median salary of Rs. 24.1 lakh according to its brochure, is the best in the business when it comes to placements in Hyderabad.  But it does not have NIRF ranking as it offers only a 1-year MBA. At the same time Careers30 gives it a rating of AAAAA. In the quality of students, jobs and salaries offered and the profile of companies visiting the campus makes it the top bet in Hyderabad.

Next is ICFAI Foundation for Higher Education, Hyderabad, with rank 25 in NIRF and 85 percent placement rate record which should fit your bill for a good MBA college.

NIRF ranks the Institute of Management Technology, Hyderabad at 61 which make it a good choice for you.
