Recruiters' FAQs

What is the minimum CTC criterion for full-time placements?

As mandated by the college, the minimum CTC for full-time placement offers is INR 3.6 LPA.

Is resume data of eligible candidates shared with recruiters in advance?

Upon receipt of the complete details of the job or internship opportunity, including the role description, eligibility criteria, duration, and compensation, the opportunity is formally circulated among the student body. Interested and eligible candidates are then invited to apply. Subsequently, the compiled resumes of these candidates are shared with the recruiting organization for their shortlisting process.

Can we conduct online recruitment processes including tests and interviews?

Absolutely. We support end-to-end virtual recruitment, and facilitate coordination through commonly used platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, MS Teams. However, we can also coordinate with recruiter's preferred platforms for assessments.

Can recruiters conduct pre-placement engagement activities (like webinars, case competitions, etc.)?

Certainly. Recruiters are welcome to conduct pre-placement engagement activities such as webinars, case competitions, workshops, and speaker sessions. The college actively encourages such early interactions as they foster greater employer branding and student engagement. These initiatives are, however, subject to the discretion and interest of the recruiting organization.

Can companies conduct customised selection rounds such as coding tests, case studies, or technical rounds?

Yes. We fully support customised hiring processes, including domain-specific rounds like coding assessments, case interviews, simulations, and more.

How do you ensure student turnout and discipline during the recruitment process?

The Placement Cell ensures high turnout and professionalism through eligibility verifications, pre-confirmations, and real-time coordination. Dedicated student representatives are assigned to each recruiter for seamless support.

What post-offer support does the Placement Cell provide?

The Cell aids with offer acceptance tracking, documentation, and onboarding facilitation, and serves as a communication bridge between the selected students and the recruiter’s HR team until the candidate formally accepts the offer.

How is candidate shortlisting handled?

Shortlisting of candidates is typically conducted by the recruiting organisation. However, should the recruiter request support in this process, the Placement Cell is authorised to assist based on specified criteria such as CGPA, course background, relevant skill sets, or resume evaluation, as communicated by the recruiter.

Can we recruit for long-term internships, part-time roles, or virtual opportunities as well?

The college generally encourages:

  • 2-month internships for Work From Office (WFO)
  • 3-month internships for Work From Home (WFH)

However, any WFO opportunity exceeding 3 months is subject to the discretion of the student.

What happens in case of candidate back-outs or offer withdrawals?

While students are allowed to accept or decline offers during the selection stage, any withdrawal after formally accepting an offer is strongly discouraged. Instances of student back-outs after acceptance are reviewed by the Placement Committee and may result in disqualification from future placement opportunities. The Cell encourages transparent and timely communication from both students and recruiters to maintain professionalism.

Similarly, if a company withdraws an offer without providing a valid reason or sufficient notice, the matter will be reviewed by the Placement Committee. Such actions may lead to the company being blacklisted from future recruitment processes at the college.

Who should we contact for coordination before and during the recruitment drive?

Upon approval of the job description by the Placement Cell, a dedicated Point of Contact (PoC) will be assigned to the recruiting organisation to provide real-time assistance and coordination throughout the recruitment process.
