Which is the best university for me: UPES, Chitkara or CGC Landran? What are their average packages?

AP
Akash Parmar Posted On : April 20th, 2021
Studied at University of Petroleum and Energy Studies (2020)

Both Chitkara and CGC Landran are at the same level. As far as placements are concerned, both of them offer excellent placements with well-developed placement cells.

UPES is definitely more concentrated on petroleum and chemical engineering. It also has some unique courses and a really good reputation and you will get to learn a lot. Fees might be a little expensive though.

My advice to you would be to not choose electronics and communication engineering at either of them because placements are not that great and you don’t want to end up with CSE students and learn coding in the last few months of your college.

The table below should help you out with placement statistics and fees regarding the same:

College

Fees

Hiring Companies

Average package

CGC Landran (B. Tech)

INR 92,000 (first year fees)

Wipro, Google, Infosys, Deloitte

INR 3 to 4 LPA

Chitkara University (B.E)

INR 1.74 lakhs (first year fees)

JCB India, L&T, Yamaha, DLF

INR 4.5 LPA

UPES (B. Tech)

INR 13.83 lakhs (total fees)

L&T, Wipro, Accenture, GEP Worldwide

NR 5-6 LPA

While the fees for UPES are quite high, you can expect to get a similar return on your investment. At the same time, you will not be pestered for admissions like in my brother’s case with regards to CGC Landran and CU. The faculty at UPES is very good too.

How are the placements in IIIT Sri City?

UN
Urmimala Nath Posted On : March 22nd, 2021
Studied at Narayana Junior College, Visakhapatnam (2018)

My friend is a pass out from IIIT Sri City and was placed at a well-reputed company. According to his experience, the secret to their great placement record is their curriculum.

As we all know that IIIT Hyderabad is the mentor institute of IIIT Sri City, it gets excellent faculty and placement assistance. The curriculum is totally different compared to NITs and IITs, so you will have a year of advantage over others because in IIITs there is no PCM in the first year.

You will be taught core subjects in depth from the first year itself, unlike regular B.Tech. This is a major plus point that helps train you enough for the placements later. Currently, the average package at IIIT Sri City is about 8–9 LPA and the highest is 24 LPA.

You might also get offered semester-long internships out of India in which you will get paid too.

Here is a list of some companies who recruit at IIIT Sri City:

  • C A Technologies
  • Michelin Tyres
  • Seedo Labs
  • Smart Pix
  • O C Tanner
  • HSBC Bank
  • Mac Software
  • Perceptive Analytics
  • Spring M L
  • Glocal Health Care
  • Byju’s
  • Flipkart (Operations)
  • Zipper Technologies
  • Apache Footwear

However, the placement package and company also depend on your skills and capabilities. So, you will need to strictly adhere to their curriculum to climb the ladder of success. Also, in case you miss the campus placements, the rigorous curriculum and training will make you capable of getting any good-paying job outside the campus.

How is the placement scenario for the finance and marketing domains at NITIE?

AR
Ayan Roy Posted On : June 7th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Industrial Engineering

NITIE is not visited by many companies with dedicated Marketing and Finance profiles.

It is a richer option for SCM, Operations, and IT management placements. 

It is the leading name in supply chain management.

Only freshers are offered marketing profiles. The FMCGs offer profiles that are somewhat related to marketing (thus not fully dedicated to marketing).

Corporate finance profiles, Investment banking positions, or Banking firm positions are offered in finance. Banking firms do visit NITIE with good finance placements, for both freshers and experienced candidates. These finance placements offer good packages. However, the placement figure is much lower as compared to JBIMS and IIMC.

Here is the NITIE Placement record for Banking, Finance, and Insurance sectors:

YEAR

PLACEMENT PERCENTAGE

2022

8%

2023

11%

Students at NITIE are mostly not interested in a Finance Career. Most belong to an engineering background, almost none have a finance background. Very few students at NITIE have CFA certifications. The finance faculty is not as good as IIMs. A CFA certification is a must if you want to secure a finance position. Mostly, you are on your own. 

This is the reason why recruiters seldom come to NITIE for finance and marketing positions.

In NICMAR, do companies notify the package before recruitment or will it be finalised based on individual performance during recruitment?

HM
Heena Mehta Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Construction Management and Research (2021)

Whenever any company visits for the placement procedure at NICMAR, a notice is sent to all the students through the mail. It consists of all relevant information including the company name, job profile, eligibility, salary offered, job location, etc. Furthermore, a column is given where you can fill the expected salary package.

Any fresher cracking the interview will be offered a salary package of around 7 to 8 LPA whereas an experienced candidate will be given a salary package of around 9 LPA.

Some organizations also have a set CTC that they offer, and you will get paid that amount regardless of your experience.

Which companies hire HRM people from XLRI? Is it true that HR professionals have less workload and their job is a bit relaxed than other roles?

NR
Nivedita Roy Posted On : May 14th, 2021
Studied at XLRI

Any professional who is from HR understands exactly what a business requires and manages the whole process from hiring an employee to their exit with talent management & development, compliance, engagement, etc. 

Setting up organizational design and development for organizations are also covered by HR professionals. The employees are just a small aspect of the bigger picture. 

  • My friend worked at the corporate compensation team and he used to simply work on his PC all the time. Getting into HR was because of the simple fact that he was good with numbers. 
  • MBA programs that offer specialization in HRM, such as XLRI PGDHRM cover all the topics mentioned above in their course work. This is why people for HR roles are taken from XLRI. 
  • According to the recent statistics, the major companies coming to the campus for recruiting HR students are McKinsey, BCG, Bain, etc. 

Traveling isn't vital for HR professionals unlike what a consultant or salesman would do, the workload is, however, very similar. At the end of the day, that aspect falls on the employer culture rather than the department itself.
