IIS is in Rajasthan and is in Jaipur and is not an old and known name for Media Placements. This is one observation. When it comes to the placements as stated by the institution - IIS- itself we have the data available on their website: https://iisuniv.ac.in/ and that is not motivating. There are internships mentioned but there is not a big impressive list of employers making a beeline. It is also clarified that there are fewer Jobs to offer through Campus Placements in Media because there are no Mass Hirings like IT or Mechanical Engineering.
The profiles that are offered to any student who goes to the media job providers are like the following:
Reporter, Tv Anchor, Editor, Content Writer, Public Relations Officer, Content Editor, Video Editor, Cameraman, Screen Writer or Copy Writer, Event Manager Stage Anchor, Advertising and graphic Designer etc.

"Deen Dayal Upadhyay Gorakhpur University or simply Gorakhpur University is located in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh. The University of Gorakhpur is a teaching and residential-cum-affiliating University." - Wikipedia

The Question has a typographical error as MJCM should be read as MJMC- Masters in Journalism and Mass Communication.
It must be placed in terms of PRIVATE and NEW Institutions that strong connection with Employers, Quality Skills in Students as well as reputation matters a lot.

You may take a serious note of the website by the name provided above. There is some confusion on the website about putting details of MJCM or MJMC. I shall not be able to provide more information and will suggest avoiding such.

Biyani Group of Colleges offer placements through their dedicated placement cell. The Link http://www.placementsbiyani.com/ shares details of their efforts as well as a List of Employers visiting them. This list does not have Media Houses and That is why I shall not able to pronounce upon a judgement on the status of real placements. The observation from the filed and media houses is that the placements need improvements. Being a regional group of institutions, there are certain limitations, BUT for a good student there is no limitation and jobs shall come their way as college shall certainly approach the employers for media profiles. The possible Job profiles the students should keep an eye on:

An advanced certificate (Considering it as something done from a reputed place as well as after graduation).
The answer that I gave for PG in Advertising Management prospects abroad and in India seems appropriate here:
An M.Sc in advertising management is a very popular-innovative as well as the less taken domain of studying mass media or mass communication. While doing the course, one learns how to see the need, plan, use the USP and create USP of the product in hand. The management of advertising of a particular product is to be done to see the impact. Along with this, the question demands response to career prospects for public relations. Public relations, on the other hand, has similar notions. The jobs that can be done abroad or in India after pursuing an M.Sc advertising management as well as a Public Relations Management degree are:
1. Teaching
2. Research
3. Job in a News Channels
4. Consultancy to get the Advertising Campaign done of a brand
5. Public Relationship Agencies
6. Event Management
7. Counsellor and Trainer
The above profiles can be developed for a job in the Advt. Management space.

The question does not share any information whether the course is a Diploma-Degree-PG or merely an add-on course as MOOC or training. Still, the answer is here based on general perceptions and replying considering the course as Graduation at least.
Government Job Opportunities for a course in Film, Television and 'New Media Production are good.
It is good that the question mentions NEW MEDIA because the largest number of jobs in the Media domain is on the 'INTERNET and WEB' based platforms. When we say NEW MEDIA, we acknowledge that there are fewer Jobs in the traditional media profiles.
Film: Making of Documentaries, Direction and Production of Serials/Short Movies/Features or Video works in PR Departments and Universities as well. Media Units, as well as the Cultural Affairs Departments, can hire.
Understand that there is more PROJECT based association with the government than JOBS.
Television: The same applies here as well as for films. The additional Job available are those of actors, News and Special Programmes as for CEC, Gyan Darshan, IGNOU etc.
New Media Production: Digital World and Internet-Based World. All Jobs that are on Internet can be done once the Public Relation Department decides to offer an opening.

A Diploma in Public Relations (Ideally a Post Graduate Diploma) shall help in getting Good Jobs through added Skills of Communication Skills, Interpersonal Skills, Corporate Communication.
Public Relations is much in demand as there are mandatory departments in all multinational companies as well as in small enterprises, even Universities and PSUs have these departments. It is always better to have the academic credential to claim a good job.
The guiding paragraph is as under:
Public Relations Management and Corporate Communication are the rising domains of careers because the corporates are finding it tough to reach the world without skilled professionals who make the best of communication.
The hiring is not just restricted to the offering by the Information and Public Relation Department. Any ministry or department that is dealing with people, has a need for someone with a Master's degree in mass communication/public relations, etc. These jobs are offered for the role of Public Relations Officer and have ample scope for the eligible people.
ABROAD: Corporate Communication and ADV/PR Management is one of the preferred domains in Mass Media abroad. The PR Agencies have lot to do there and have an active role in Media.

Direction - Films, Movies, Short Films, TV Serials, Features, Advertisement/TV Commercials etc. is a profile with the Public Relation, Doordarshan/Prasar Bharti divisions of the government. There is a possibility to get employed with the Universities and Film Production related government Institutions as well. Media Studies institutions managed by the government shall also offer jobs to Directors and Makers and Faculty.
Direction shall also be an eligibility to take Part Time or Project Based Jobs with the Government. Generally, LONG TERM Projects are also like Jobs when one gets employed in the government.
