Camps placements in some of the engineering colleges in Mysuru have exceeded expectations in the current cycle of recruitments reinforcing the view of buoyancy of the economy.
Though a few U.S.-based companies did withdraw offers hinting at a slowdown or the onset of recession, the student community has not felt the pinch as they were covered by alternative offers.
At Sri Jayachamarajendra College of Engineering, apart from the regular recruitment of students from IT-related streams even students from mechanical and civil were recruited in large numbers. ‘’The 2023 cycle of recruitment has witnessed a steady stream of manufacturing and construction companies picking up fresh graduates apart from mass recruiting software companies who are into IT hiring,” said Pradeep Manjunath, placement officer of SJCE, Mysuru. This year, nearly 250 companies visited SJCE and close to 800 students have been recruited, he added.
