Haldia

Haldia Institute of Technology started its journey in the year 1996 as the first self-financing and Govt. Aided Degree Engineering Institute in the state of West Bengal,
As compared to other colleges of West Bengal, the scenario is much better(except 1 or 2 other private colleges). You would get a chance to appear in mass IT recruiter companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro. Recently from last 2 years, Tech-Mahindra is also visiting.The average placement from all the branches combined is approximately 200-250. Apart from that, you would get opportunities for pool campusing. While most of them, like Cognizant Technology Solutions, Accentual and Wipro, are well-known multinationals with offices in various parts of the world, local offices of industrial giants like Haldia Petrochemicals Limited and Indian Oil Corporation also recruit HIT students into their ranks.
Overall you can say it's placement ratio is average.College administration has to work a lot to increase the placement so as to maintain the name of HIT. Freshers enrolling in this college have a lot of faith that they would be placed from here but the things are not like that. Really you have to work hard and have to be smart too to get campus placement because the opportunities are less.
The good part is you would get a good network of HIT alumni and friends who would be there to help you in shaping your future.

Hey there,
The placement scenario varies from year to year especially in chemical engineering of Haldia Institute of Technology.
In 2017, various core companies recruited students from HIT like Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd., Adani Wilmar, Topchem Cement, Praxair, Wacker, S.G Biogas, IR Chemicals, Oriental Nicco, Chemtex, Voith Paper, Sanmar, and Almal.
Many IT companies mass recruited chemical engineers like Wipro, TCS, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, etc.
Some chemical engineers from Haldia Institute of Technology got a chance to get placed in sales companies like Berger, Amazon, but these two companies recruited students through off campus placements. Off campus placement opportunities are also there but you need to have the patience to get through with them as most of them are willing to recruit after you have completed your final semester. Some faculty members help students appear for an interview through their industry sources off campus.
Well, talking about the placement stats, only 20% of batch get placed in core companies, the rest of the batch was placed in IT companies that are mentioned above and some decided to opt for higher studies.
The average salary package offered by core companies was 3.5-.5.5 LPA and the salary offered by IT companies was 3-3.2 LPA.
If you really want a core job then you have to be among the toppers or else smart enough to face any interview.
I hope this helps you.
