TRUST ME, You can think of better ways and even fun ways of WASTING MONEY than joining this institute.
If you want to be employable and considering this course as an option. LET ME WARN YOU, IT WON’T MAKE U ANYMORE EMPLOYABLE THAN WHAT U CURRENTLY ARE
I wanna tell u about me before people from Copal institute call me frustrated, Four months after my course at Copal ins. I was desperate for a job n then I decided I am not going to call them again n ask for interviews.
I myself made efforts for getting a job and in the end I got one at a bulge bracket investment bank (I don’t want to reveal the name but its bulge bracket so u can guess how bigger it is than Copal) as an analyst and pay package is far better than what Copal offers its above 6 lacs pa. I didn’t even show the Copal course in my cv while interview . and m not an MBA don’t worry....so if your not getting a job ...going to Copal institute is not the last resort....work on yourself and gain knowledge and u’ll get a job and yes u can do it.
And short cuts like Copal ins. wont lead you to a worthwhile place in ur life rather u will end up wasting ur father’s or your own hard earned money
NO COMPANY IN THE INDUSTRY VALUES THIS COURSE(CIFR) , AND SURPRISINGLY.....NOT EVEN COPAL PARTNERS.
POINTS TO BE NOTED:-
You will get no value addition worth of the money they are charging and the time you will waste.
The only place you can get job is copal partners ( CAUTION:-probability of getting a job is very very low)
If you wanna be a financial analyst in real sense, this thing is totally different n very low class. you will become a data puncher and u will feed in data in excel sheets n that too for 14-16 hours daily, you wont even do financial modelling as copal partners use many years old financial models.
Institute guys often say that if u join copal at the package of 3 u will get two increments in a year n it will become close to 4. n they say u will get 20% minimum increment in 6 months. THEY ARE LYING, u can confirm this with anyone working in copal partners
In real sense Moody’s has nothing to do with copal partners except tht copal partners is now just flaunting Moody’s name.
They WON"T TEACH YOU VALUATIONS REALLY, BUT THEY WILL TEACH YOU WHERE TO ENTER DATA IN A EXCEL SHEET AND WITH WHAT COMMENTS ON THE CELL AND HOW TO FIND THE FIGURES IN A COMPANY"S ANNUAL REPORT. AND YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ASK LOGICAL QUESTIONS ABOUT VALUATIONS.BUT YES YOU CAN ASK ANYTHING ABOUT EXCEL BECAUSE THEY THINK EXCEL = FINANCE.
*At the time of admission they will tell u tht " if u work hard with this course u will lead an amazing career in finance, and we’re are not promising you a job but yes we are promising u 5-6 interviews."
and what happens is, for this data punching job they ask Chartered Accountant type accounting questions and other irrelevant questions but actually none of this is taught in this course. and soon u will be done will ur 5 interviews and the institute wale will say " YOU DIDN’T CLEAR IT!!! ITS YOUR FAULT " and TARUN will shout at u and make u feel that its only ur fault.*
YOU CAN LEARN ALL THIS IN VERY CHEAPER than this LIKE Rs. 10-15k.
The main faculty is Prakash Sumani, the guy who has such a attitude that he considers himself CEO of copal partners. And he’s worst teacher, never appreciate the students who dont consider him the CEO and put the good students down and always focus on his favorite students.... FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY JOINED:- Be Prakash Sumani’s favorite and he will make sure you get the first interview call and rest of the students might get the call but mostly they won’t. Are you looking for a job? then this is not the place to join rather go n study n sit for as many interviews you can.
If you wanna learn valuation go online and search for Aswath Damodaran’s vids and wall street materials
and learn and understand Vault Guide to finance interviews Religiously and work on your communication skills.
And you’re ready for the interviews, don’t hesitate to apply to big companies or investment banks, they love talented people....yes they do....
*My sincere advise to those who are considering any course at this institute, DON’T DO IT
don’t waste money and time..... ONLY YOU CAN MAKE UR CAREER ....work on yourself and your knowledge.....u will certainly rock....n these courses at copal are worthless n 10 times costlier than other institutes.*
