The XLRI School of Business and Human Resources has completed its Summer Internship Placements (SIP) in two-and-a-half days, where its first batch of 2016-18 consisting of 361 students has achieved 100 per cent placement, reports Times of India.

The SIP process reportedly saw the participation of almost 92 companies offering 156 jobs from domains such as consulting, finance, sales and marketing, operations, business development (BM), human resources (HR) and industrial relations (IR).

According to the report, the top recruiters on campus in terms of numbers were Accenture, Aditya Birla Group, Hindustan Unilever, ITC, Star India, Akzonobel, Mahindra, Mondelez, TAS, BCG, GE and P&G.

In addition to the recruiters above, 21 first-time recruiters participated in the recruitment process and offered 28 roles across domains.

The sector-wise split of offers, according to the report, suggests that FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) sector is far ahead at 26 per cent followed by BFSI (banking, financial services and insurance) and Conglomerates with 13 per cent each, respectively followed by manufacturing at 12 per cent and consulting at seven per cent.

The remaining 29 per cent is spread across sectors such as technology, media, pharmaceutical, power, retail, automotive and oil and gas.

E-commerce, which was a valuable recruiter last year accounting for 8 per cent of the offers, however, has halved this year with its share reducing to 4 per cent.
