    RIIM PUNE is the best among all these colleges. As per my knowledge if you are looking for a college in terms of academic and placements then I must say that RIIM is one of the best college. The PGDM programme offered by institute offers a 5 days industrial tour to Singapore where students are introduced to foreign work and industrial cultures. The IBEP (International Business Exposure programme) at UK/France. This is one the unique programs offered by RIIM Pune. This programme gives students to undergo study programme in top universities of the given countries. An opportunity to learn from best and get maximum after completion of MBA.

    While selecting any Management Institute you have to consider some of the important parameters like Placement, ROI, Course Curriculum and Standard of Education. All the above mentioned Institutions are definitely good, but RIIM PUNE is doing best in all these fields in an affordable fee structure. The best part is that they have added maximum Practical Exposure programme in the Course Curriculum of PGDM and that makes the difference with other Institutions. Placement scenario of RIIM is outstanding and for PGDM Marketing, there are plenty of placement opportunities in various Companies like Capgemini, Deloitte, KPIT, AVALARA, Justdial,

From my experience as an ex-student, the mock GDs and mock interviews at PIBM are quite effective.

They help students understand the format, develop confidence, and improve communication skills before facing actual placement rounds. The feedback provided after each session is practical and points out areas of improvement, whether it's body language, content, or answering strategy.

Overall, these mock sessions make students more comfortable, polished, and better prepared for real interviews and group discussions.
