hi bloggers....
It’s not only raining jobs at the IITs but also at regional colleges. S M Gupta and his placement team at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Kurukshetra, Haryana, have created a record of sorts.For the first time in over a decade, the institute had 115 companies on campus for placement. Till 2008, the company had been receiving only around 70 companies.
Similarly, TCS offered jobs to 1,091 students from Tamil Nadu-based SRM University. This, against 350 offers that TCS made to students last year.
At the Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur in Rajasthan, 350 students are placed against a batch size of 450 students. Here again, IT companies including Infosys Technologies and Accenture have indicated recruitment of 50 students each.
The rush to hire students from campuses validates that the business which was impacted during the slowdown is picking up fast. TCS after its second quarter results for financial year 2010 had announced that it will give offer letters to 30,000 student at campuses for fiscal 2011-12. This is 50 per cent more than what the firm had offered in the current fiscal.

Joining the bandwagon is India’s third largest IT services firm Bangalore-based Wipro which offered jobs to 406 students at SRM University. Last year Wipro offered jobs to about 300 students. Similarly, Delhi-based HCL visited SRM University to pick up 235 students against 95 students that it picked up last year.
For instance, Cognizant has hired students at an annual pay package of Rs 3 lakh from VIT University. While TCS would be paying an annual salary of Rs 3.19 lakh to B Tech students, M Tech students will get Rs 3.5 lakh and MBA students will get Rs 4.7 lakh per annum.
At IIT-Kharagpur however, social networking firm Facebook has offered a Rs 70 lakh annual package. At VIT University, Amazon would pay its only recruit an annual package of Rs 9.5 lakh.
