Constitution of the placement cell
A placement cell has been constituted by the college. The principal of the college is the chairman of the placement cell and few of the teaching faculties both from Arts and Science streams are the members of the cell. One of the members is designated as In-charge of the cell.
The committee is formed with the aim to interact with the industries and employers, find out job opportunities and make the students aware of them. Placement cell facilitates the process of placement of students in various companies. Placement cell works for Undergraduate as well as Post Graduate students.
Student Selection Process
Students are informed about the job opportunities in various ways. If the job profile is suitable for all the students, the information is posted on college notice board. If the job profile is suitable for the students of only few of the departments, then the notice is sent to the respective departments for displaying on the notice board.
Now a days most of the companies send registration link on their website. Students need to go through the job description and if they fulfil the given criteria then they can register for the job profile. Once they register for the same, further communication takes place between the students and the employer.
A student has to go through several steps like written tests, group discussion and interviews in the placement drive. Candidates passing through all the steps are entitled for getting an offer letter. Some of the companies conduct pool campus drive for the students from all the colleges at one place. Some of the companies also prefer to do this entire process of selection in college campus itself.
Placement Team
Composition of the placement committee is as follows
- Principal
- Teachers from both Science and Arts Streams are the members
- One of the members is designated as in-charge.
