16 days to go...
Further delays in this post.. but not my fault, mostly blogger's.
The PCom batch meet happened last night, amidst much fanfare. The Placement Chairman made his maiden speech to the batch, telling us to take medical examinations before the job interviews, just in case "we don't have something that is required for the job". And then he corrected himself, thankfully, to saying that we should check if "we have something that they don't want". He has recently become legendary for such errors, and it was enjoyable to sit through them. I just realized I'm really going to miss all this!
Junior PCom made an entry, with a series of contradictions. However, considering that it was their first time addressing a senior batch, it was quite understandable. Good luck to them! More shortlists are in, more heartbreaks are in (some due to the placement process, some otherwise). I hear one particular prominent software services company made 28 offers in IIMK! They are coming to L, but for a profile one level higher than that at K. Unfortunately, I have a shortlist in this company. Will it be back-to-Chennai for me? Will I get stuck up in the company I came here to escape? To find out more, please keep watching this space.
Yesterday I filled up a form by a life insurance player from the ICICI stable, with began operations in India as a joint venture with Prudential. There was a 108 page psychometric test going on, a pain by any standards. One funny post on blondie by someone after taking this test said:
"WHO AM I... My hearty feelings to all those who gave *&* online test... Goshhh...."
Update: Shocker! A prominent bank has the exact same 108 page psychometric test! 108 pages!

Hi Shravan..

Isn't it possible for you guys to do something for his cause in the period between placements and convocation..?!
I mean take out a procession, do a funds-collection drive..something...!!
PCom chairman, Prof. Pankaj Kumar. Thought you wouldve guessed. :)
Yes, for funds collection, the insti knows about the foundation, and how they can contribute to the foundation. Anjali Mulatti's mail was put up on blondie.
