Introduction

Many CMA students believe that marks and attempts alone decide campus placement.
But in reality, companies also look for job-ready candidates.

Practical training plays a very important role during CMA Campus Placement — especially in shortlisting, interviews, and final selection.

This blog explains how practical training actually helps you during campus placement, in a clear and practical way.
