Ranchi, July 24: Plum jobs await students who will graduate from BIT, Mesra, in 2009.
Within a fortnight or so, about 500 students pursuing BTech, MTech, MCA and other courses, have already been placed during the first phase of the recruitment drive this year.
The rush for BIT students among Indian Oil Corporation Limited, Tata Motors, Maruti Udyog Limited, Tata Consultancy Service, Wipro and Satyam among others has led authorities to believe that by August 15 — the last date for the first phase of placements — all students would have one or more offers.
“TCS recruited 264 students while Microsoft’s offer is the highest — Rs 9 lakh per annum. A boom in civil engineering and manufacturing sector is evident,” said B.B. Pant, the head of training and placement department, BIT, Mesra.
Pant said at this juncture he could not reveal whether the average annual salary this year would surpass that of last year. But the overall response shown by the companies was impressive, he said.
The campus recruitment drive started from July 4 and authorities are hoping that all 800 students, would be placed suitably before August 15.
Students from all BIT centres — Patna, Jaipur, Calcutta, Allahabad, Noida, Muscat and Bahrain — are taking part in the recruitment process.
Today, officials of three companies — LG Electronics, Tata Consulting Engineers, John Deere — visited the campus.
John Deere, a name to reckon with in tractor manufacturing, would continue their drive tomorrow.
At least 200 students were yet to be offered suitable placements. By the next week or so BIT, Mesra, hopes to ensure 100 per cent placements.
