CareerSimplified·co.inLaunchpad

MBA admissions and placement

From college shortlist to signed job offer.

We work with people applying to ISB, the IIMs and global one-year MBAs, and with students already on campus facing placement season. One mentor stays with you through both, because we would rather be judged on where your career is five years later.

A large part of Launchpad is free and needs no account, so use those first and buy only once the free tools have already been useful.

Choose how much help you want

Two services, each led by a person who works with you through the cycle, and fixed packages underneath them if you already know what you need. Full Launchpad access comes with every one of them.

Questions people ask first

Why are there no prices on this page?
Because the honest answer depends on what you need. The fixed packages each show their price on the checkout page, one click away. For the full services, the number depends on how many schools and how many rounds, so we confirm it on the call.
Does access renew automatically?
No. Each service is a one-time engagement for a fixed period, not a recurring subscription. Nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel.
Can I start free and pay later?
Yes. The free tools do not expire, and anything you save stays on your account when you upgrade.
What if I need both services?
Most people need one at a time: the application service before you have a seat, the placement service once you are on campus. If you want both, message us and we will sort it out rather than charging you twice over.
I bought the wrong one
Message us on WhatsApp and we will switch your access across. Nothing you have already saved is lost when the track changes.
