Review of XISS - Xavier Institute of Social Service.
Placements: Placements are something which is directly related to ROI. It's something for which every student waits since their admission in any institute or even before. Our batch received one of the best placements ever, and this time the highest salary package was offered to a student of our batch.
Infrastructure: There is a difference between quantity and quality. Though seats are very low in our institute, students are par in the quality. Infrastructure wise our institute is small, but when it comes to utilisation, our institute utilizes its resources very optimally.
Faculty: Faculty members in our college are par in their respective subjects. They have got immense exposure to the corporate world which they share in the classroom. Faculty members are very helpful and guide each student equally. Courses that are taught are very much up to date.
Other: Apart from academics, XISS is known for conducting various cultural, sports, social events as well. Panache is the mega-fest of XISS which is celebrated like a carnival every year.

Good return on investment and a top management school under tier2 category.
Placements: Placement was good. 100 percent placement was only achieved in the marketing department. The highest CTC was from HRM I. e 13 Lacs. From Marketing the highest, CTC was 6.66 LPA in India. Most of the companies offered the job in Sales profile in Marketing department. Talking about the college marketing department faculty profile, the faculty profile is not very strong in Marketing department except two or three faculty members. Banks & Microfinance are the major recruiters so anyone who is not interested or is not looking to join banking/insurance sector should not take admission in the marketing department of Xavier Institute of Social Service. Major requiters were HDFC bank, ICICI bank, Shaija microfinance, etc. And the profile offered was relationship management. Marketing 1st-year first-year students have also to suffer for their summer internship companies. Stipend amount provided is too less and most of the companies for internship hired candidates for the sales profile( tele calling ) only.
Infrastructure: Since college was started with only two departments I. e Personnel management & Rural management 65 years ago. So the campus is not too huge but the infrastructure is well-equipped with all the modern technology and facilities. The classroom has a capacity to accommodate 60students at a time. A 450sq fit classroom has 2Air conditioners, mic and sound system for lecture delivering. One normal auditorium, a basketball court which is also our vehicle parking place. A multi-gym along with a trainer is also present at a cost of Rs700 whose fee is submitted at the time of trimester fee submission.
Faculty: Faculty profile is not so dynamic except One or two. People of HRM, IT, RM are engaged in Social field work during 1 year of their studies. Students are given live projects. To make students learn about the rural market the students are taken for a 3day camp in the remotest part of the Jharkhand. Every second-year students go for a 10 days industrial visit to the placed like Noida, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata.
Other: Each year XISS celebrates a management fest in February named as Panache. Various games and events are conducted during these 4 days of management fest. Each event winner is rewarded either with a cash money prize or the amazing gift.
