Which are the dream companies for an XLRI HRM student?

A dream company depends upon your choice and where your interest lies. Typically, HR Consulting, IR, Manufacturing, or Line HR Roles are more popular.

• If you are interested in HR Consulting then Hay group, Accenture consulting are considered a dream as both of these companies pay significantly higher than other companies like Mercer or Hewitt. 

• If your interest lies in IR or Manufacturing then FMCG companies like P&G, Unilever, ITC, Asian Paints, etc should be your dream companies.

• If you are interested in Line HR or corporate HR only then Novartis, Stan Chat, Microsoft, or other big banks and the Software or product based companies etc. are considered dream companies. Novartis offered their position in Switzerland so it was a dream for many students. 

Despite this, some students may be more interested in joining startups and building systems from scratch than in joining existing companies.
