Based on the verified Shiksha reviews and comments from students and alumni of RIMT University, here's an assessment of the placement cell's effectiveness, placement cell at RIMT University appears to be ineffective. Here are some key points that summarise the concerns:

• Lack of companies visiting the campus: No company has visited the campus for placements in the past 4-5 years, making it challenging for students to secure jobs.
• Poor salary packages: Even when companies do visit, they often offer low salary packages ranging between INR 1.5-2.0 lakhs per annum.
• Placement cell is "namesake": Many students perceive the placement cell as being unhelpful and lacking in its efforts to facilitate placements.
• Ineffective guidance: Students feel that the placement cell does not provide adequate guidance and support to help them prepare for interviews and secure placements.

Overall, the feedback suggests that the placement cell at RIMT University needs significant improvement to effectively place its BTech graduates in reputed companies.
