I feel happy to be here and be a part of GIET University.

Placements: At GIET University, I think 60-70 percent of students get placements in their dream companies. The lowest package ranges from 2-3 LPA, and the highest package ranges from 23-24 LPA. Some top recruiting companies for our course are TCS, Infosys, Accenture, etc. Many students go to do internships in many companies.

If you see before Covid, there were good placements, but after Covid, they are not.

Placements: In my batch, there are total 350 students in CSE. More than 250 students are placed at Amazon as call center BPO. Don't know if this is computer science and why. They do not mention that BPO or call center, this Amazon call center is of Tech Mahindra company, so they mentioned on their website that students are placed in Tech Mahinda as everyone will think wow students are placed in tech IT jobs. But this is the harsh truth.

College is good. They focus on our study.

Placements: Placement is average. In my opinion, if I do not have skills like soft skills and hard skills, then why would a company hire me? To my knowledge, 42 LPA is the highest package, and 2 LPA is the lowest. But I don't know much about the package, and the training and placement cell is also held here for training.

Is GIET good for placement?

Placements: Placement is decent. 60 percent of students were placed in our senior batch. The highest package is 20 LPA, the lowest package is 3 LPA, and average is 5 LPA. Top companies are visiting for placement, but most of the companies are sales companies. Students, 100 percent get an internship from our college.
