Is there anyone who remains unplaced from old IIM, XLRI, FMS Delhi, and NITIE? Is it possible to be?

Top B-Schools have created an Invincible persona and have successfully marketed it over the years; however, there is now a demand-supply mismatch, with seats at all B-Schools almost doubling or tripling in the last decade, and a slew of new IIMs or branches of top colleges such as MDI Murshidabad, IIFT Kolkata, NITIE, FMS Delhi, and XLRI Delhi. The colleges will suffer as a result of the lack of job offers from top companies. The only increase can be attributed to recently funded startups that have started hiring from these colleges by offering outrageous packages.

There are students who are unable to be placed during the normal Summers / Finals process, but these colleges use their star alumni base to place the remaining 5-8 students in companies cofounded by the alums or through alums who have been placed in top positions in traditional corporates.

The Official placement statistics show a 100% placement rate on paper. But the scenario might differ in accordance with the circumstances of the student and the institute.

There are several students who do not secure placement offers either due to a very poor academic profile or because they have planned to pursue some other direction.

You should understand that if there are offers beyond 300, with students counting to almost 200, then it is not right to accuse the institute because of students who remain unplaced. The college does not actually promise placement, it will only offer you opportunities.

The institutes you named definitely provide multiple offers to the students, despite which few students remain unplaced.
