STUDENT CENTRIC PLACEMENT - A UNIQUE APPROACH
The placement process at ISDM is
student-centric, and not organisation-centric.
During the placement process at ISDM, students
provide our placement team with their preferred
organisations and/or roles. Using this
information, relevant job offers are sought and
presented to them, and not the other way around.
This reverse process is what makes our placements
unique. Term one student body is elected
nurtured to lead the placement at ISDM. The
placement lead of ISDM conducts various CEO talks
to appraise students with the roles
opportunities in the sector. Students are
mentored to write in the discipline along with
Resume creation personalised cover letters.
Students are through out terms mentored by Alums
of ISDM about current trends of the sector.
Mock interviews are conducted to make students
ready.

RECRUITMENT PARTNERS SPEAKS
J
Sudhir Sahni Director-Partnerships, PRADAN The
right talent can make a disproportionate impact
on India's social development. ISDM has put
together a very robust curriculum and attracted
an exciting bunch of young professionals to make
this happen."
Parul Soni Global Managing Partner, Thinkthrough
Consulting Pvt. Ltd. ISDM's approach is to build
partnership, which made it easy for us to recruit
candidates of our choice. ISDM is building a
community of people from diverse backgrounds, all
are passionate about the social development
sector. We're pleased with our recruitments and
would definitely attend the campus placements
again.
Srikanth Viswanathan
Ashok Kamat Chairman, Akshara Foundation
CEO, Janaagraha Centre for Citizenship
Democracy We need a much larger number of
thinking and well-rounded youth to invest their
time in solving some of the most challenging
problems facing humanity. The ISDM Programme
seeks to nurture this kind of talent and connect
them to civil society organisations.
I had the opportunity of spending a day with the
first batch of ISDM students and found them to be
motivated, energetic, and wanting to make a
difference to the world. I believe that these
youngsters will bring out a perspective that will
be a refreshing change from what we have seen in
the past.

Atul Satija Founder CEO, The Nudge
Ashish Dhawan CEO, Central Square Foundation The
financial resources available to the social
sector have increased significantly, primarily
driven by the rise in individual contributions
and CSR. More than ever, we now need people who
can build world class social organisations with
the ability to use these resources more
effectively to deliver social impact and change.
ISDM students have a critical role to play in
this journey.
The development sector needs leaders who can
build world-class social organisations based on
an understanding of this space. Students from
ISDM will help bridge this talent gap.
Nidhi Bhasin Deputy CEO, Concern India
Foundation The moment you interact with the
students of ISDM, their confidence, focus,
clarity of goals make you realise that this
course is beyond what any other development
course provides in our country. Each student I
interacted with showed a sense of initiative and
a need to do something different, definitely
something that we need to bring a holistic change
in the social and economic situation in India.
Though we ended up recruiting after most other
recruitments had finished but the institute was
very professional with their approach and helped
us to recruit a capable and experienced candidate.
Vidya Shah CEO, Edelgive Foundation
We are looking forward to have ISDM students work
with us during their 8 week Residency to help
take forward crucial work that is related to
analysing data and preparing a holistic capacity
bu il d in g pl a n for ou r g ra n tee
organisations while also identifying gender
intersectionalities of the work we do.
