A significant rise has been observed in the dream applications by the students under the recruitment process of IIMs in India. Here are some details about the Dream Applications and policies of IIMs for students to make such applications.

What is a Dream Application?

If a student secures a job from a company under the category of a “dream company,” then also they can continue participating in the placement process to apply for other dream companies. This process helps students to pursue roles they truly desire rather than settling for their first offer. Similar to the final placements, students can apply for multiple “dream” internships even after their first selection.

Students can apply to firms of their choice in later clusters, even if they have already accepted an offer from an earlier cluster.

This allows students to apply for preferred companies in subsequent clusters enabling them to align their careers with true interests.

However, Once a student receives an offer from their dream company, this offer becomes binding, and any previous offers are forfeited.

This ensures that both the student and the recruiter have a clear and committed engagement.
