Who Can Apply for IIM Tiruchirappalli Corporate Engagement Executive 2026?
Educational Qualification and Experience
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Essential qualification | A Bachelor’s Degree from a recognised University/Institute |
| Preferred qualification | MBA or PGDM in Marketing, HR, Business Analytics, or General Management |
| Preferred experience | Post-qualification experience in business development, campus placements, corporate HR, or B2B sales |
So a plain Bachelor’s degree is the base. A postgraduate management degree is “preferred”, not compulsory. If you hold an MBA, our post graduate government jobs page lists more openings like this. Only qualifications from recognised Boards/Universities/Institutes and relevant post-qualification experience will be counted, and the Institute/Selection Committee decides whether your experience is relevant.
Mandatory Requirements
| No. | Mandatory Requirement |
|---|---|
| 1 | Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English, with the ability to engage senior decision-makers |
| 2 | Self-starter with strong interpersonal skills and demonstrated persistence in lead conversion |
| 3 | Willingness to travel extensively (10–15 days/month across metro cities) |
| 4 | IT and AI proficiency |
The travel point is serious. You should be ready to spend 10 to 15 days every month on the road visiting companies in metro cities. If that does not suit your life right now, think about it honestly before applying.
Desirable Skills
| No. | Desirable |
|---|---|
| 1 | Corporate experience in Tier I cities (not limited to Bengaluru or Hyderabad) is highly desirable |
| 2 | Prior experience working in a placement office (as a student or a professional) will be preferred |
| 3 | Working proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets, a CRM or database tool, and familiarity with data visualisation tools |
None of these desirable points is compulsory, but together they show what the Selection Committee is looking for. If you have handled a CRM, built dashboards in Excel, or coordinated placements during your own studies, describe it clearly in your application so it is not missed.
Age Limit
| Category | Maximum Age |
