We continuously work to broaden and deepen our relationships with the corporate sector. We have an active employer network of 100+ employers and on average we share 4 – 5 opportunities for our alumni every week. The process is quite simple. We promote all relevant opportunities shared with us by the employers on our social and networking platforms. We receive resumes of interested candidates on the placements email address. We shortlist those resumes based on the hiring criteria shared by the employer. The shortlisted resumes are then emailed to the employer for the next steps in the hiring process. We have aggressively worked in our region to increase the minimum salary that is given to a fresh ACCA. We have been very successful in this struggle and we only promote opportunities on our portals that meet the minimum criteria. This salary range is continuously updated based on the economic conditions and available opportunities. We believe SKANS Placement office has played a crucial role in reviving the job market for ACCAs. The number of opportunities for ACCAs have been on an increasing trend since the last 2 years and we hope to witness this growth in the future as well.
