LLB INTERNSHIP / TRAINING Placement

Hello Sai. "Several students look at internship as just a mandatory exercise they need to complete to get their degree. What they do not realise is the fact that company spends a lot of money to train them. Just to add an additional desk in the software industry, it costs a firm around 6,000 to 10,000. They should value this and try and learn what they can so that they can help the firm in some way during their stay there, " said Viswam Vemula, founder of Chanwi Technologies, adding that candidates should opt for an internship only if they have at least three months time on hand. Another reason why there is a limited number of internships on offer in big companies, experts say, is because of the apprehension among them to take on board temporary staff. "This is to avoid possible breach of confidentiality. Small companies, on the other hand, have financial constraints, " said an industry professional. Officials at the
Jawaharlal Nehru
Technological University Hyderabad (JNTU-H) seconded the concerns of the industry and said it is practically impossible to provide internships to 70,000 (approximately) students, especially in the IT sector. "For popular colleges, getting internships for their students, isn't still a major issue. But there are many other colleges who have no choice but to send their students to smaller institutes in SR Nagar and Ameerpet, which do no good to students as they are handedover completed projects at the end of their internship or projects. Opting for these institutes can have an adverse effect on students as they will not get any exposure into the way the industry works, " said N Yadaiah, registrar, JNTU-H.
