Indian Air Force plans corporate placement fairs for its officers
Published September 15th, 2007
After organising management programmes for officers, even in institutes like IIMs, the armed forces are now looking at corporate placements for their officers and other ranks by also holding “placement fairs”.
The Indian Air Force, for instance, is organising “a placement fair” for its retiring “air warriors” in New Delhi on September 22 and 23. “Close to 40 companies have already registered for the fair so far,” said an officer.
“Every year, a large number of highly-trained, disciplined and multi-skilled personnel retire from service at a relatively younger age of 35 to 54,” he said.
“The corporate world can benefit from hiring such personnel, who have at least 15-20 years experience in flying, navigation, air traffic control, aeronautical engineering, technology management and the like,” he added.
