Starting their career with Axis Bank will give a push to better career opportunities for the IIM Lucknow graduates who will at some point of time work towards progressive growth. By continuing to stay in the workforce, on the other hand, they can also make their way to senior and level positions through their creativity and skills. Axis Bank also conducts ‘lateral hiring programme’ for women who are back in the field after a time-out.

Axis Bank’s move to recruit IIM Lucknow students is indeed a good one! Female candidates who join the Executive MBA and IPMX courses at IIM Lucknow need not worry about placements as Axis Bank offers guarantee placements through a formal selection process.
