This year as well we saw an increase in the participation of firms and also the variety in job roles was higher. The successful completion of the placement process within three cluster days is a testament to the high-quality learning experience at the institute and the robust placement process that provides adequate flexibility to both recruiters and students. The placement this year indicates that the demand for high-quality talent continues to grow in a favourable as well as a challenging job climate.
