22 Dec 2008 Bangalore: Business graduates from foreign institutes such as the University of Chicago Booth School of Business are seeking opportunities to work in India, at a time when an economic recession is resulting in more job losses and lack of opportunities for them in the US.

A group of around 25 students from the University of Chicago Booth, which is the second oldest in the United States, have started a program called India Business Week (IBW) to visit Mumbai, Bangalore and Delhi for seeking jobs in the segments of private equity, IT, investment banking and consulting.

“We received very convincing and receptive response from several firms that we visited. Most of us are originally from India, we want to move back,” said Nitesh Jain, IBW lead from The University of Chicago Booth.

These students, having a work experience of five to ten years are visiting Indiabased companies such as Tata Group, Wipro, Infosys, ICICI Venture Fund, Intel, IBM, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and Deutsche Bank.
