Good News @ Great Lakes. Great Lakes has been able to show amazing placements this year, with 100% getting atleast one offer on the first day itself. Though the exact average CTC (it is above 9L) is still not calculated it will surely take us to the next level, competing directly with the best B Schools in India. This year it was not just about the offers and packages but the profiles, which ranged across the verticals and horizontals. With cos. coming from all industries, the placements were far above any ones expectations. The show is still not over with many more cos. lined up and ready to come over to offer Great Lakers amazing Profiles. We had best of the Banks, IT companies, FMCG Companies and Manufacturing cos. landing up here. This time we had cos. which cancelled their visits to best B Schools in India, and have visited Great Lakes for recruitment. I am sure all those who land up at Great Lakes next year would end up being a happy lot J All the best for the interview phase and Welcome Junior Crusaders J Also, the construction work for the new building would be starting very soon, so Great Lakes is rocking J
