MNIT-Jaipur(Malviya National Institute of Technology-Jaipur) is one of the premier NITs of India.Here is an analysis of their placements.
According to the official website ,in the academic year 2008-2009:
- 77 organizations visited/ conducted interviews for recruitment of final year student and selected 337 student out of total 340 eligible students.
- Maximum Salary was Rs11.7 lpa(De Shaw), Average Package was Rs.4.54 lpa.and minimum was 3 Rs.3 lpa (Capgemini).
- 28 Software companies visited the campus for the recruitment this year
- 61 Core engineering companies visited the campus for the recruitment this year
- 99.11% of eligible (340) UG candidates placed
- More than 50% of the students placed in first 7 days from the commencement of placement.
- INFOSYS was the biggest recruiter (58 students)
- Record highest salary offered is Rs. 11.7 lpa by DE SHAW to 2 students of Computer engineering .
Note that a lot big names like ST Microelectronics , Oracle,Microsoft etc. are missing.
Also , a maximum salary of Rs.11.7 lpa means that most likely there were no foreign placements(which are usually over $50,000 pa)
Dream job(most likely) would be an offer greater than Rs.4 lpa , preferable in a core company.
As it can be seen from the table , the overall averages are good , especially for EE , in which case it is above Rs. 5 lpa , which is great.Note that since the highest was Rs.11.7 lpa , there would be no "spiking" of the average caused by a single very large salary(eg. a foreign placement).Also note that even Mech/Chemical/Civil have 4 lpa+ averages , which is very good.In fact Chemical average exceeds CS!!A reason for this could be due the PSUs like IOCl,ONGC,NTPC etc. which give 7-8 lpa and often recruit over 10 students.In fact , during this placement season , BPCL took 5 , NTPC took 18+4 , IOCL took 7.Their pays(calculated as pay-in-hand + benefits are quite good).
On the whole , MNIT-Jaipur had quite good placememnts , though not as good as NIT-Calicut(click here to see)
