Plus, once you observe the statistics that are mentioned, you would realize that each aspirant stands a solid chance to receive a call.
There are other factors that are important as well which are bound to be considered. These are as follows.
- Not the quantity of work you have done, but the quality you have provided to your work experience would matter a lot.
- Your CAT percentile should be decent enough to be considered. They also consider past academics and extracurricular activities.
Hope this helps.
