04:42 PM
TISS Mumbai
Personal Interview is one of the most important components for getting into the course. Therefore, lay a strong focus on its preparation. Even though the criterion for interview is confidential, and the interview varies from person to person, we recommend you the following: • Keep your calm during the PIT-PI • Know why you want to do HRM&LR • Be well versed with the prevailing social issues in the country • Try to connect past work experience and educational background to HRM • Why you want to join TISS?

Kindly ask the invigilators to be strict because last time we were irritated seeing cheating. 1. What knwoledge do TISSians think would have shaped their thinking better while pursuing courses at HR? like emotional intelligence books? 3. do you think more aspirants are preparing for tissnet now that it got wider attention in placements? 4. Do we have to apply separately for hyderabad and mumbai HRM courses?
04:39 PM
TISS Mumbai
The HRM & LR course is one of the oldest HR courses in India and is highly acclaimed in the industry, therefore, students interested in pursuing HR as their post graduation stream have always applied for the course. You can apply for three courses across two campuses.

04:42 PM

The course combines both practical exposure and academic rigour. We have four fieldworks spread across four semesters, one summer internship and one NGO stint. Therefore, there is a wide interaction with the industry. The number of seats are 60+8. The final selection ratio from PIT-PI is 1:13 approx. Therefore, the level of hard work required is subjective.
