Sales and Marketing led the batch at 23%
Sales and Marketing accounted for 23% of offers, the largest sector share in this 2020 report. The next sector, Finance, sat at 23%, so the gap between first and second is 0 percentage points. If your target function sits outside this lead sector, treat the headline placement rate as a campus-wide figure rather than a guarantee for your preferred cohort.

Sales and Marketing and Finance together made up 46% of offers, a concentrated recruiter mix. Consulting was a distant third at 22%. Concentration is not automatically good or bad, but it does mean batch-level averages can mask thinner opportunity in secondary functions.

578 of 578 eligible students accepted offers through the campus process (100%). With essentially full participation in the reported pool, the next question is how those offers were distributed across sectors and pay bands rather than whether a seat converted.
