Role of Work Experience

Work experience is a valued component of the application and does improve a candidate's overall profile. It accounts for 10% of the total final selection weightage.

Eligibility for Freshers

GIBS encourages applications from freshers. They are considered equally eligible for the PGDM/MBA program. For candidates without work experience, the admissions committee places greater emphasis on other components of the application to assess their suitability:

Strong academic record
Competitive scores in entrance exams (CAT, XAT, MAT, etc.)
Impressive performance in the Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI) rounds
Participation in extracurricular activities, sports, and other achievements

In summary, work experience is an asset, but a lack thereof does not disqualify a candidate. Freshers with strong academic aptitude and performance in the GD/PI rounds have an equal opportunity for selection.

Yes, work experience does improve the chances of getting selected at GIBS Bangalore for the PGDM/MBA programs.

Role of Work Experience

Work experience is a valued component of the selection process and receives 10% weightage in the final admission decision. Candidates with prior professional exposure often bring practical insights into classroom discussions, demonstrate greater maturity, have clearer career goals, and are often preferred by recruiters during placements.

Eligibility for Freshers

Work experience is not a mandatory requirement for admission to the regular PGDM/MBA program at GIBS. The institute welcomes fresh graduates, and a recent batch profile showed that a majority of students (76%) were freshers.

Freshers can strengthen their applications by:

Strong Academics: Maintaining a good academic record (a minimum of 50% in their bachelor's degree is required).
Entrance Exam Scores: Achieving competitive scores in national-level entrance exams (CAT, MAT, XAT, etc.).
Internships and Extracurriculars: Highlighting relevant internships, volunteering, leadership roles in student organizations, or entrepreneurial projects.
Strong GD/PI Performance: Excelling in the Group Discussion and Personal Interview rounds, which carry a significant 40% weightage.
Compelling Statement of Purpose (SOP): Clearly articulating their career goals and motivation for pursuing the program.

In summary, while work experience is an advantage, freshers with a strong overall profile are highly encouraged to apply and have excellent chances of admission based on their academic achievements and performance in the GD/PI rounds.
