[Consulting@ISB] Big Ticket Dreams - Time to Pause

Dear All,

Now that the placement report has been formally announced, I can formally take a "pause" on this blog. This year has been a watershed year in terms of the consulting placements. New records have been established and our efforts have borne fruits. ISB has bagged huge (if not the largest) number of consulting offers from the bluest of the bluechip firms.

I hope that this blog has served its purpose of being a platform for sharing knowledge with all consulting aspirants from Co2006. We worked as a team to ensure that everyone gets the best shot at their dream consults. There was unprecedented collaboration within the batch and I strongly feel that it helped all of us push our bar a notch higher. Great show! This has only vindicated our belief that consulting placements are not a zero sum game.

The placement figures are available for all to see [ http://www.isb.edu/campussbuzz1/placements_2006_Fact_Sheet.pdf ] so I would not repeat them here.

The incoming batch can use this blog to get a feel of the way their alums went about preparing for consults. From here on it’s up to the Class of 2007 to carry the tradition forward and keep the ISB and Consulting@ISB flag flying high!

Wish you all the best in your careers.

Cheers :)
Yash
