IIT Madras placement news
Within the first five days of the placement season, IIT Madras has over 524 students placed in the campus recruitment that began on Monday. A total of 119 companies have made 577 offers so far in various categories. The institute has seen a significant increase this year in the number of students placed and the number of offers made as compared to last year.
Looking to the last year's records, in 2013, 84 companies had made 383 offers and 333 students were placed during the same period. Though the number of companies has increased by 35 this year but the ratio of the number of students placed versus the offers made remains almost the same.
The recruitment process is a culmination of month-long preparation for interviews, group discussions and online tests by the students. Aditya Bharadwaj who is doing an undergraduate dual degree programme, said that he had started preparing a month ago for the same.
"Some companies expect us to solve cases. We do a lot of probability optimization. We have a lot of courses aligned to consulting. I practice cases with others who are also appearing for similar profiles," said B.S.V. Saket from Visakhapatnam who has been offered a job in Goldman Sachs, Bangalore, as quoted in a national daily.
