Focus Academy for Career Enhancement
Focus Academy for Career Enhancement (FACE) is an IIM Graduates’ Enterprise designed to cater to the
vast and varied needs of today's student community. We provide the right perspective regarding various career
options available to the students and sufficiently train them to pursue their careers of choice. Given the clutter of
career options available and prevalent group tendencies amongst students, FACE believes that expert guidance
and training can help students streamline their energy towards their chosen career paths.

The core philosophy of FACE is “Any student, if given the right kind of inspiration, motivation, training and
sufficient exposure to the opportunities available, will certainly be able to realize his/her potential.” With all our
service offerings woven around this philosophy, FACE aspires to become the-go-to-service provider for educational
institutions who seek expert help for their student community to identify and attain the career of their choice.

Four key reasons why FACE will make a difference to your institution:

• Best in class Faculty - Our faculty consists mainly of 95 plus percentilers in CAT, including several IIM
graduates. Our trainers are achievers themselves, who will act as an inspiration to the students and help,
dispel various myths around the placement process.

• Unique Pedagogy- Cracking placements is more about skill than knowledge. We teach verbal ability
rather than just English; we train on aptitude rather than Maths. Understanding and internalizing this
crucial difference makes our pedagogy unique, interesting and effective. Equally important, we emphasise
and ensure continuous engagement rather than ad-hoc programs as the key to making a significant impact
on the skill levels of your students.

• Campus placement experience– Having been part of placement committees in premier institutes, we
understand the nuances of campus recruitment. Moreover, in our corporate lives we have been part of
recruiting teams, so we know what industry is looking for. We will be able to marry the two and add value
to your institution’s placement cell by sharing our knowledge about methods of approaching and attracting
companies to your campus.

• Proven Track Record: In just 10 years, we have become the market leader in India in the employability
enhancement training space. We 400+ full-time trainers in the placement training industry in India. We
work with over 1800 engineering colleges and have trained more than 20 lakh students so far. We have
made significant impact in placements of every kind of college - government and private, old and new,
established and upcoming. We have even set world-records.
