<b>Your horoscope holds the key to a plum job!</b> <!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Recently, a brokerage house, which was doing the rounds of some of Mumbai’s B-schools, asked the short-listed candidates to submit their horoscopes for evaluation by a renowned astrologer. The candidates were told their job would depend on the astrologer’s nod.

<b>Darashaw & Co Pvt Ltd</b>, one of the oldest broking and investment banking houses of the country, short-listed a few students and asked for their horoscopes, which <b>will be individually evaluated by Bejan Daruwalla. </b>

According to a source, three students each from IES Management College and Sydenham Institute of Management Studies have been short-listed and one from MET has also made it to the final round—of submitting the horoscope.

“Initially, it was the usual stuff, which comprised of personal interviews and group discussion. After the successful completion of these,<b> we were offered a package of around five lakh. And we were asked to submit our horoscopes, which, we were told, would be evaluated by Bejan Daruwalla</b>,” said a student who did not wish to be named. Attempts to get in touch with the HR director of the brokerage firm proved futile. Placement agencies sources told FE such selection processes are not uncommon.
