I will tell you how placements work. Let there be a company and lets name it "Orange". Your PC (Placement Coordinator) approaches this company and invites them for a placement drive at your college. Orange will then confirm by giving their shortlisting criteria. Now in reality, mostly this criteria contains the following:
1. Student must have no back/cleared backs at the time of interview.
2. Student must have more the 80% aggregate in all semesters at the time of interview.
3. Student must be well read about all the company profile.
4. Student must possess good logical and analytical abilities. And so on. Now, your placement coordinator can negotiate with the company for following:
1. The student will have no more than one back in core subjects that he/she will clear by the time of joining.
2. Instead of the 80% criteria, the shortlist will contain the names of the top 20 unplaced students of the batch based on our one placement policy. All resumes will be sent to you for approval. And so on. Based on how much Orange trusts your PC and what is the image/ranking of your college in the market, the company will agree to some of these negotiations and will present some of its own. Most of the time, the companies do not prefer students with uncleared backs, so I would advise you to avoid getting any or clear all before interviews. After this shortlist, Orange will take Written tests (Core subject/Logical Reasoning/Communication Skills/Psychometric Test) based on its policies followed by interviews (Technical and HR). Based on all of this you get a job.
