109 Companies Hiring Students from Regional College of Management Bangalore for its 2022 Batch

100+ major companies have recruited talented candidates from the Regional College of Management Bangalore despite the pandemic looming large across.

MBA aspirants from RCMB College have seen a remarkable placement session with competitive packages being offered by the best of the organizations rushing to the college to recruit all-rounders!

109 Companies Hiring Students from RCM Bangalore for its 2022 Batch

RCM Bangalore College is the 5th best MBA college in South India and within the top 20 B-schools in India, offering management degrees to students. RCM Bangalore is awarded “Best College for Placement in South India” by Berkshire Media LLC USA in 2020. As a recognized management school, RCMB ensures the emotional and cultural well-being of its students. RCMB’s strategy lies in exploring creativity in each student with a positive approach and aligning the skills with the corporate world for better clarity and enhanced implications.

From the beginning of the course, RCMB, the leading management institution, emphasizes the career-building process and placement of students with top-notch companies and brilliant pay packages. However, what makes RCMB unique is the approach it takes to understand the individual requirement of each student in terms of their dream job and what the individual aspires to become in the future. Based on this initial assessment, each student is guided to achieve their goals.

The signature program!

How does RCMB make such a difference in this fast-paced life, giving each student individual attention and dedication to pursue their dreams? The mentorship program is a signature program of RCMB that is well-structured within the academic curriculum to enhance the effectiveness of the general management course. This program is crafted with perfection where from each batch of learners, around 20 students are being assigned with one mentor who is an industry expert with rich corporate experience of at least 20 years. Since this mentor is a part of the corporate world who has worked as a part of the higher management such as CXO and the like, it gives a cutting edge to the students aligned. Although the mentorship focuses on an approach to establish an informal association to mentor the student as a friend, philosopher, and guide, however, the objective is always to teach corporate readiness within the student before they face the business world with real-time challenges.

Busting the placement fear with efficiency

It is pertinent that any challenge can be overcome with efficient planning and dedication. The same holds for cracking an interview for a dream job. Does it look like a piece of cakewalk? It is relatively simplified by RCMB for its students with a practical and well-organized placement process. The executive Placement Board consists of 11 leading Industry leaders and Management experts from the National and International arenas working round the year to bring Fortune 500 companies to the campus and actively participate in assessing and counselling the students. They form a vital part of the placement process in the view of their collective 250 years of rich corporate experience in different industry verticals and associations with leading European universities.

Also, the dedicated workshops arranged for the placement process imparts both quantitative and logical aptitude training to enhance final year students’ confidence and interview skills. Along with this workshop, the summer internship program also helps build self-assurance for the students.

Placement from 109 companies during the pandemic – The modus operandi.

RCMB ensures that each student gets multiple job offers of one dream job and the rest from top companies to make a conscious career choice with a package ranging between 6 to 12 lakhs per annum and a more than average yearly increment. The efficiency of the placement team lies in the fact that even during the pandemic, 109 companies engaged in the hiring process through the placement cell. Many RCMB students join City Bank, Wells Fargo, TCS, Capgemini, Deutsche Bank, and many more this year to start a career with direction and conviction.

While MBA aspirants often get confused by the huge number of career options out there, RCMB rather takes a practical approach to groom fellow students instead of putting them under all sorts of business jargon.

RCMB, therefore, calls on all the MBA aspirants out there to inculcate the culture, knowledge, and awareness of this disruptive and ever-growing business industry and be a part of this vibrant journey!

Nutty Yogi, the Health and Organic Foods Brand Raises Seed Funding from Multiply Ventures

Nutty Yogi, the clean-label health food brand, today announced raising Rs. 50 million in Seed funding led by Multiply Ventures.

Pallavi Gupta, Founder, Nutty Yogi

Pallavi Gupta, Founder of Nutty Yogi said, “Healthy and nutritious eating and the need to nourish oneself is a growing trend. However, the gap we identified in the market was that the consumers are being made to make a selection between either health or taste as there is no brand that offers the goodness of health with a no-compromise taste experience. With our strong R&D, we also made sure that consumers did not need to alter their existing pallets to meet their health goals. Since our launch, we have created a group of loyal and repeat consumers and created a robust pipeline of products and are now a complete AM to PM health food brand.”
The Bengaluru-headquartered company currently selling through all popular e-commerce market places and their own website www.nuttyyogi.com will use the raised funds to expand its footprint beyond a direct-to-consumer model, launching in major brick and mortar retailers across the country Since its launch the company has served and made a million consumers healthier and looking to extend its reach to all states of India
This investment and association with Multiply Ventures and the team, offer a very strategic state of mind for Nutty Yogi as they have a lot of heart for the brand and its mission.
Sanjay Ramakrishnan, Partner at, Multiply Ventures said, “We are absolutely aligned with the mission of Nutty yogi and that is to make organic, healthy food accessible to a large set of consumers. One of the easiest ways to stay healthy is by eating right. This seems simple and straightforward but the challenge is to find all kinds of products that meet a consumer’s needs & palette. We believe Nutty Yogi has a chance to fulfil the gap and be the brand of choice. The company has grown well and that too profitably. This is rare to see in a VC bull market. We are excited to partner with Pallavi and the team in building Nutty Yogi.”

The Future Investment Initiative Institute announces its regional summit titled Inclusive ESG for Emerging Markets

  • At the summit, FII institute will present a proprietary new inclusive ESG framework and scoring methodology developed for informing and accelerating ESG investments in emerging economies.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, May 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute is hosting a summit, ESG in Emerging Markets, at Rosewood London, England on May 20, 2022, from 9:00 – 16:00. The summit will bring together international investors, world leaders, thought leaders, policy makers, global CEOs, and heads of sustainability to discuss and shape the future of ESG, particularly in emerging markets.

At the event, FII Institute will anchor two major themes: The Future of ESG and The Future of Sustainability, with more than 40 international leaders and experts slated to speak including:

  • H.E. Yasir Al-Rumayyan (Governor of Saudi Arabia PIF, Chairman of FII Institute, Chairman of Saudi Aramco)
  • H.E. Dr. Yasmine Fouad (Minister of Environment of Egypt)
  • Larry Fink (CEO of Blackrock)
  • Senator Matteo Renzi (Former Prime Minister of Italy)
  • Noel Quinn (Global CEO of HSBC Holding).
  • Vincent Keaveny (Lord Mayor of the City of London)

Furthermore, FII Institute will unveil a proprietary new inclusive ESG framework and scoring methodology, developed for informing and accelerating ESG investments in emerging economies.

According to FII Institute CEO, Richard Attias, “The planet has huge problems with climate, with destruction of nature and with peace and security. But we also have enormous resources, including our shared humanity. We believe ESG is a critical tool for bringing us together and directing capital to meet these challenges. At the Institute our work is inspired by a new generation of leaders, many of whom are women, many even under the age of 40. These leaders will be in attendance at this event, and they are the motivators and drivers of the change we need.”

While the use of ESG standards to make investment decisions is on the upswing globally, with assets projected to reach USD $53 trillion, about a third of global AUM, by 2025, the lack of a framework for effectively implementing ESG in emerging economies is a stumbling block for investors. With FII Institute ´s proprietary measurement framework, developed in conjunction with investors, global corporations and FII Institute ´s strategic partners we will finally have the tool required for developing sustainable investment strategies in these markets.

The event, which fulfills the institute’s XCHANGE pillar, is in line with its focus area of Sustainability. The Institute has a mandate to have an impact on humanity across four areas of focus: AI & Robotics, Education, Healthcare, and Sustainability.

The event is one part of a series of events the Institute is hosting, which will culminate in the 6th edition of the annual FII Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in October.

Shillong becomes 8th destination in the Northeast to be serviced by flybig

flybig, India’s newest airline, has been on a rapid expansion mode ever since its flight operations began in January 2021. On 2nd May 2022 Shillong became the 8th destination for flybig in the North East of India after 4 cities in Assam, 2 cities in Arunachal Pradesh and 1 city in Tripura.

flybig newest route, opens up several vistas of opportunities for people across demographic and socio-economic segments including potential for students who study in Delhi NCR and neighboring regions or working professionals especially (Government personnel) who are stationed in Delhi but whose home state is Meghalaya or any neighboring state or area. Similarly, quicker air travel times of air vs Rail and Road travel (which was earlier the preferred mode of transport to travel between Delhi and Shillong) coupled with greater frequency of access provided by the Shillong-Delhi bi-weekly flight is likely to increase the potential for both movement of people and goods.

Further, with the introduction of this route it deepens the market access between metropolitan air hubs such as Delhi, Kolkata and the North east. In terms of time and resources saved, the flybig operation would end up saving more than 600,000 man-hours in comparison to rail travel and nearly 90,000 man-hours saved when compared to other air carriers.

Explanation: – 42 hours of train travel minus 3.5 hrs of travel by flybig = 38.5 hours of travel time saved multiplied 78 seats x 2 (to & fro) x 2 (twice weekly) x 52 weeks = 624,624 man-hours of train travel time saved. Air Travel Manhours saved – Average 9 hours of flying commute time minus 3.5 hours of flying time on flybig = 5.5 hours of time saved x 78 seats x 2 (to & fro) x 2 (twice weekly) x 52 weeks of ops = 89,232 man-hours saved.

It can be clearly projected through estimates that the Shillong-Delhi operation of flybig would introduce enhanced efficiencies and productivity for several local and regional businesses especially those who aspire to connect with a major transport and commercial hub such as Delhi and beyond. This would imply further enhancement of efficiency of transportation for Government, infrastructure project teams, paramilitary personnel and defence forces by saving both cost and man-hours,

In terms of seat capacity added by flybig through the Shillong-Delhi operations it added 312 seats per week which accumulated to a capacity of 16,224 seats per annum.

Speaking on this growth and route expansion, CMD flybig Captain Sanjay Mandavia said, “I feel very proud and privileged that flybig has become the fastest growing airline in India with true people connect. Not only have we effectively converted thousands of passengers from rail to air, but we have also provided connectivity to lakhs of passengers from across India, including the whole North-East.”

.”

It is to be noted that conventional travel by train takes about 42 hours while travel via other airline operators on the Shillong-Delhi route takes 8-10 hours (with atleast one stoppage).

The schedule for the twice-weekly flybig Flight Service between Shillong (SHL) and Delhi (Del) has been commenced on May 2nd, 2022, is as follows:

SHL-DEL

Departure from Shillong at 9:20 hrs. and Arrival at Delhi at 12:25 hrs.

DEL – SHL

Departure from Delhi at 12:55 hrs. and Arrival at Shillong at 16:20 hrs.

flybig return airfare for this route is starting from Rs 9998 + Applicable Taxes
