Who we are

Built by IIM alumni to close the placement gap.

A mentor bench that has sat on both sides of the interview table, so capable students stop losing offers to under-preparation.

The founder

A career built on helping others start theirs.

Founded by Ajay Kumar, an alumnus of IIM Indore and Andhra University, who saw the same pattern year after year: strong students walking into placement season under-prepared for the one hour that decides their first job.

Preparation should never be the reason a good candidate is passed over. The whole practice is built around that.

Our mentors

A bench with a pedigree students can trust.

Our mentors are alumni of the IIMs, FMS, XLRI and MDI, working across consulting, finance, product and operations. Forty-plus members, headquartered in Hyderabad.

They have hired and been hired. And because they sit outside your faculty's academic load, your placement cell gains capacity exactly when the season demands it.

What we stand for

Four principles behind every program.

01

Pedigree in the room

A mentor from a top business school with real hiring experience, not a script.

02

Practice over theory

Live mock interviews and rebuilt resumes, not slides.

03

The whole cohort

We design for the entire batch, not only the top few.

04

Candid feedback

After every round, exactly what worked and what to fix.

For universities & business schools
