XLRI was founded in 1949 by Fr Quinn Enright, S.J. in the Steel City of Jamshedpur. Fr. Enright visualized XLRI to be a partner in the liberation and development journey of the independent India with a vision of "renewing the face of the earth". Fr. Bill Tome joined hands with him to bring that vision to fruition. Both, together with the other Jesuit companions, worked tirelessly towards translating the Vision "Renewing the face of the earth" into action.
Over many years XLRI has developed its own identity. The hall mark of this identity is, not to walk on the beaten path but to strike new routes; not to benchmark but to be benchmarked, to be second to none but to be the first to respond to the needs of the people and the nation, by taking up the tasks which are bold but necessary which nobody has hitherto taken up.This enterprising and pioneering spirit can be witnessed throughout the history of XLRI.
We at XLRI believe in creation of asset rather training of minds. In order to stand out in the present competitive world, managerial leadership requires both excellent functional skills and exceptional outlook. In today's vibrant marketplace businesses seek talents who have both analytical and interpersonal skills. Increasingly recognized by recruiters as a one of the India 's best B-school, XLRI's placement process aims to match the requirement of the recruiters and the aspirations of the students. The three main placement processes conducted are:
The summer internship programme of 8-10 weeks aims to widen the student's perspective by providing an exposure to real life organizations and environmental situations. This in turn help organizations to build a long term relationship with the students community. The summer intern serves as unofficial spokesman of the organization and helps in image building on campus.
This is a process especially designed for candidates who have prior work experience. We believe that students with diverse work experience in different functional areas coupled with sound academics would add value to the organizations. These candidates are normally selected directly to hold managerial positions. It is a spread out process during the months of December to February.
The campus recruitment programme aims to meet the increasing demands of the business houses by providing resources that are valuable on two different counts, firstly in embodying new knowledge and skills and secondly, in embodying fresh outlooks, awareness, interests and approaches. The process takes place in the month of February wherein the companies from diverse sectors evaluate the students before committing to a permanent hire.
