History

XLRI was founded in 1949 by Fr Quinn Enright, S.J. in the Steel City of Jamshedpur. Fr. Enright visualized XLRI to be a partner in

the liberation and development journey of the independent India with a vision of “renewing the face of the earth”. Fr. Bill Tome joined

hands with him to bring that vision to fruition. Both, together with the other Jesuit companions, worked tirelessly towards translating

the Vision “Renewing the face of the earth” into action.

During the fi rst seven years of growth, several courses of management and trade unions were developed and organized by the institute.

In the year 1953, the 2 year full time industrial relations program was started which is now the most widely acclaimed Personal

Management and Industrial Relation (PM & IR) course. In the year 1968 the 2 year full time business management (BM) course

was introduced and it is now one of the most sought after programs. To mark the fi fty years of service to the executive world,

XLRI started the three year executive post graduate program in the year 2001. It started the three-years Executive Postgraduate

programme in Business Management (Singapore) and the International Student Exchange Programme (ISEP) in 2006. In 2007

the one-year Postgraduate Program (PGP) in Management and Insurance (with ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company), 12

months Postgraduate Certifi cate (PGC) in Retail Management (Satellite based live classrooms across the country) and the 12 months

Postgraduate Certifi cate (PGC) in Sales & Marketing Management (Satellite based live classrooms across the country) was started.

of talented and knowledgeable students, aspiring to make a niche for themselves in the pulsating and exciting

domain of Marketing. Th e industry faces a constant turmoil of change-be it in the form of changing trends or

learning. Students have over the years, picked up the fundamentals and nuances, skills and attributes in marketing

and applied the same, be it in the campus activities of the Marketing Association of XLRI, Maxi or in the course

of their internship in exciting projects, with the best of the industry. XLRI has prided itself with the innovation

of ‘MAXI Fair’ (estd: 1977) as an innovative way for companies to solve marketing research problems. Some of

them have even used the fair to launch products. Th e confl uence of a great talent pool and rigorous pedagogy

Perhaps one of the most sought after event in XLRI is the MAXI Fair- a three day carnival-like milieu which has emerged as an

accredited market research tool. While students try to extract unbiased consumer perceptions and preferences, elicit meaningful

information they actually gain insights which inculcate the fi ner aspects of Marketing. Events like these are complemented with live

projects and industry interaction with experts. MAXI ensures that the business school experience is fi lled with exciting events which

make learning more challenging and close to practice.

Strategy & ConsultingStrategy and consulting, over the years, has carved a niche segment for itself in the market. In today’s extremely

competitive environment, the need to diff erentiate oneself from one’s competitors is of paramount importance.

It is therefore the need of the hour, to have managers equipped with skills and mindsets that will foster quick

understanding of the businesses and their environment, thereby enabling quick decisions. XLRI has recognised

this need and has established a focussed course designed to imbibe in its students the ability to understand and

analyse businesses with respect to their environment, and to promote out of the box thinking. Due to the

pulsating and dynamic nature of businesses, and factors that infl uence it, the strategy & consulting courses at

XLRI are designed to evolve with the market requirements. Th e faculty, deeply respected by companies around

the globe, is involved with several consulting projects in the private and public domain and brings to the students

a plethora of knowledge enriched by their experience in the fi eld.

General ManagementGeneral Management, as a sphere of activity, is concerned with the leadership and management of any business

as a whole. Here, at XLRI, we understand the importance of inculcating in our students the values and qualities

necessary for eff ective general management. Th e course is structured to encompass these very values, and to

expose students to philosophies and strategies that sustain successful enterprises. At the core of the study in this

fi eld, is the focus on ethics and corporate citizenship, as we understand the linkage between the enterprise and

the broader community.

Th e Placement Offi ce is managed by the Placement Committee which consists of student representatives. A placement Chairperson

is selected from the faculty. Th e activities of the Placement Committee include coordinating for the Summer Internship Program,

the Lateral Recruitment Program & the Campus Recruitment Program. It corresponds with the prospective employers, arranges

Pre-Placement Talks and Personal Interviews on campus and provides all the facilities required by the visiting companies.

Placements

Building Campus Presence

A successful recruiting eff ort is possible only when the students know you better. XLRI off ers you many opportunities to help build a

good corporate image among the students. Th e following are our recommendations for the same.

Pre-placement Talks (PPTs)

Th e pre-placement talks are presentations organized by the company on the college campus. Over the years, they have become the

primary forums for company-student interaction. Th ese talks give the student a chance to learn more about your company, your

people and your work culture. Th e students can also learn about the opportunities for growth, learning and advancement that your

company off ers. Th ey can also form a fi rst-hand impression of your company and can make an informed decision about applying for

the placements. We have over the years found that senior executives are the most eff ective in delivering the PPTs and also making

a strong statement of commitment to recruiting from this institute. Th e PPTs can take place on any mutually convenient day. If the

company wishes to display some promotional material on campus, the fi nal form of the material can be sent to the Placement Offi ce,

which will arrange for its display.

Distributing the Published Material

An eff ective way of creating awareness about your company among the students is to provide them with information. Th e information

could be in the form of annual reports, company brochures, pamphlets, research material and other published information. Th e

placement offi ce will ensure distribution of such material amongst the students. Th e students could also be provided with live case

studies. Th is could be done by conducting Case Contests. A panel comprising company executives with/without XLRI faculty could

evaluate the student presentations.

Conferences, Workshops, Academic Fairs

Various events, speaker series, panel discussions, conferences, workshops and academic fairs can be organized in which your company

may participate directly or contribute through partnerships. Institute scholarships and awards can also be sponsored by your company

as a way to express your companies’ commitment to excellence in the student community at XLRI.

Sponsoring Projects

Projects are an integral part of the academic curriculum at XLRI. Over the years, many students have taken up live projects with many

organizations. Th is provides the students involved, a basic understanding of the company’s operations. It also raises your companies’

profi le among students and the faculty.

50

Th e Pre-Placement Talk

Th e company conducts the recruitment process in the Scheduled

Placement Slot. Companies are encouraged to give pre-placement

talks well before the recruitment process begins. Th is helps the

student in making an informed choice about the organization.

Ideally, the PPT must include:-

Company Profi le•

Projects on off er•

Compensation details•

Possible openings in the next year•

Th e Ranking

Th e following parameters are used to rank the companies:

Past record of recruitment•

Relationship of the company with the institute•

Career growth opportunities in the company•

Compensation off ered•

Market performance of the company•

Alumni feedback•

Since the slot arrived at is a collective decision of the students, no

request for the change of slots shall be entertained.

Student Resumes

Companies have the option of circulating their customized

application forms amongst candidates, or accepting personalized

resumes from the shortlisted candidates.

Recruitment Process

Th e company shall inform the Placement Offi ce about the

following details well in advance.

Th e Method of Recruitment (Preliminary Test, GD, • Interview, Case etc.)

Number of Rounds of the GD and group size•

Number of rounds of Interview•

Approximate duration of the GDs and Interviews•

Important Information

Th e Placement Committee, in consultation with the student body

and the faculty, arrives at the norms of the placement process.

Th e committee reserves the right to modify any such norms,

where such norms are in the overall interest of the candidates

participating in the process. In the event of any confl ict in the

interpretation and implementation of the norms, the decision of

the Placement Committee shall be binding on the students and

the companies.

Summer Internship Process

Th e placement process consists of the following stages:

Th e company conducts a Pre-Placement Talk.•

Th e resumes of the interested candidates are sent to the company.•

Th e student body ranks the companies under the supervision of the faculty chairperson.•

Th e company is informed of the day on which interviews have been scheduled based in the ranking.•

Th e company sends a shortlist of students and the Recruitment Process details to the Placement Offi ce.•
