Quick answer: This sits in the Strategic Initiatives Office of HCLTech's Financial Services vertical, so the work is industry research, merger and acquisition notes, budgeting and sales forecasting rather than a sales target. The gate is academic: MBA or PGDM with 60% or more in 10th, 12th, undergrad and the last semester of PG.

HireSetu's note
The marks screen goes back to school
Most campus offers check your degree and stop there. This one lists 10th, 12th, UG and the final PG semester, each at 60% or above, so one weak school result can stall an otherwise strong application. Keep scanned mark sheets ready, because that data gets verified early and a percentage you never checked is a pointless way to lose a shortlist spot.
Work experience is called an advantage, not a requirement, so the role is built for a fresher out of an MBA or PGDM. Anyone three years into a job is reading a campus listing with an academic cutoff attached, and experienced-hire strategy roles in the same vertical are the cleaner route in.
Excel, decks and one forecast that has to hold
You sit next to the vertical's senior team: competitor and benchmark research, merger and acquisition prospect notes, the annual growth plan and budget cycle, and the quarterly performance reports sales leaders read. Funnel analytics feeds the same loop, since the unit wants forecasts on order book and revenue that survive contact with reality.
MS Office is the only toolkit named, and Excel is where most of it lands: benchmarks, budget models, forecast trackers. PowerPoint carries the version that reaches the president. A forecast that comes close beats a clever model nobody can explain.
Two years in, this profile tends to move into strategy, FP&A or sales operations, or into the vertical's own planning teams. Worth checking where earlier trainees in this office landed, since the exposure depends on which projects are live.
