See in Amex we prefer to hire the following folks
1. We know you beforehand
2. We know your relative beforehand
3. Someone internal
4. IIT/IIM/DU
5. Fresher who is known to the Hiring Manager
6. New (0.1% time, progression within Amex for them is 99% unlucky)

1 to 6 is decreasing order of preference

(It's a function of Your acquaintance with Hiring Manager)

Hence we remain premium (premium koodadan)
