Nowadays, PSUs have started considering GATE ranks, internal exams, and interviews, so the chances of getting placed in the core sector through campus placements are very meager. Only a handful of core companies such as Tata Power, L&T, GE Healthcare, etc. come for recruitment.
If you are planning to get into the Power Sector, you will have to prepare for the competitive exams. But if your goal is to just get placed even if it’s an IT company, then as long as you have a decent GPA and basic coding skills, you are likely to grab a good offer. That being said, one must consider bigger criteria when choosing college rather than just placements. In 2021 NIT Delhi EEE average package was recorded at INR 8.1 LPA.
So, you don’t have to worry about placements at all as long as you are committed to hard work
