The top recruiters for Polymer Technology are – Cognizant, Oil India Laboratories, Hero Motors, Petroleum Conservation Research Association of India and more. These recruiters are either research based organisations or are engaged in the production and exploration of petrochemicals which are further refined and used for the production of various polymers.

Hope this helps !

Greater Kolkata College of Engineering and Management (GKCEM) consider scores from the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE) and JEE Main so admission to the college requires meeting the requirements for both exams. You have to take part in the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board's (WBJEEB) counseling process after passing the entrance exam. You can choose GKCEM during counseling based on seat availability and rank. For courses the college might also grant direct admission based on management quota or merit.

Almost 80% of the students got placed. The highest salary package offered was INR 3.75 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was INR 2.6 LPA, and the average salary package offered was INR 3 LPA. TCS, Future Group, Ping Click Real Estate, etc., are the top recruiting companies.

With the rank of 168,317 in the entrance exam it could be tough to get into an Electronics and Communication (EC) branch at top engineering colleges in Bangalore. However, there should be still be good opportunities at emerging or mid tier institutions. Schools like Acharya Institute of Technology, Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (through quota) or RajaRajeswari College of Engineering could be good choices. The chances of admission depends on the cutoff score for that year, your category, and the number of available seats.
