IIMC Delhi Placements: Students' Opinion

AI-Generated Summary based on 16 Reviews

The placement process at the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMS) offers diverse opportunities, with top companies like ABP News, CNNIBN, Genesis, Edelweiss, TATA, and HT recruiting students. The highest package offered was 20 lakhs by Sony Entertainment, while the average package ranged between 2-5 lakhs. The placement rate was approximately 75%, with most students securing jobs by the end of the academic year. Internship completion is a prerequisite for placement eligibility, though internships are typically unpaid.

During the placement drive, which occurs in February and lasts for a fortnight, companies such as TOI, ABP News, Economic Times, All India Radio, and PTI visit the campus. Despite these opportunities, the placement system is not fully robust, as only four to five companies visit regularly, selecting a limited number of students with initial packages often being modest.

A Place for Learning and Self Realization.

Placement Experience:

The college offers good placement opportunities for students as is the premier institute for mass communication in India. Almost all news agencies, news channels, radio companies, advertisement and PR agencies and PSUs come for recruitment. The students are also encouraged to apply independently to the organization of their choice. Top news channels like IBN7, Headlines Today, Star News, NDTV, India TV, Times Now came for recruitment. Radio channels like Red FM, Radio Mirchi, 95 FM come every year to recruit talented individuals. Pay packages vary starting from 2-3 lakh per annum and going up to 12 lakh per annum or more depending upon the organization and profile. Almost two thirds of my batch got placed successfully. The others got placed within a matter of a couple of months.

IIMC, a hidden gem in the shadows of JNU

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements after the first semester results. Accenture, TOI, Business standards. Students from all campuses got placement and marks didn't matter that much. My plan was to get the job in which my interest lies, so I didn't sit in campus placement.

Placement Experience:

Unfortunately, the session was put on an indefinite hold before the start of this year's placement process. Although, AD Factors and JWT are some of the revisiting organizations that hire from different departments of IIMS in bulk after the end of every academic year.

Placement Experience:

The institute 'assists' in placements but doesn't guarantee a placement. So the campus placement system is not very robust. Four or five companies visit the campus and select very few students. Most of them also don't offer a good package initially. Students mostly try and find their own jobs.

My college journey

Placement Experience:

During the year, I passed out, almost all the students were placed well before the final results were out. The Pioneer was being launched in Delhi and most of the students were placed. TV was in infancy, five students went to TV news. Placement have become more professional in recent times.

IIMC Delhi: 1 Answered Question

How is the placement in IIMC, New Delhi? And what's the average package in advertising and PR?

Gaurav BajoriaStudied at the Indian Institute of Mass Communication.

The placement in IIMC New Delhi is decent, being a communication school run by the government. The table below gives the recently available data regarding the placement in IIMC, New Delhi.

Average package in advertising and PR	2.5-3 Lakhs per annum
Highest package offered	8-9 Lakhs per annum (NTPC)
No of the candidates receiving the highest salary	4-5

Key Highlights:

Being a government-led institute, it offers good exposure to jobs after course completion. But, it is not always as expected.
Most students are not attentive to the lectures, yet they get good opportunities in the industry. The academic score doesn’t matter that much, it is one’s skill that counts.
Candidates getting admission in IIMC, New Delhi should have a decent clarity of thoughts, along with good writing skills and speaking ability for interviews.
A thorough understanding of the media industry and its way of working is essential for improving yourself. Reading multiple newspapers a day is essential, which the professors focus on. The skills developed in the 9-month course decide how the student will perform in job interviews.
Many students pt for courses in digital marketing and web analyst to acquire the skills needed in the industry. Even after clearing IIMC entrance, candidates fail to get jobs because the industrial experts understand the candidate’s capabilities and select them according to their needs.

There are only a few students who receive good 8-9 LPA offers from PR and Advertising and that is what distinguishes them. IIMC has that fame in itself, and the candidate just needs the right preparation for his/her own benefits.
