The members of batch ’22 started the Placement Preparation Committee’s initiative after observing the students’ readiness and, as marketing puts it, “identifying the innate need” of the students. Understanding that issues and difficulties faced by the batch need a permanent solution as similar challenges will be faced by the upcoming batches, the voluntary group took the shape of a formal committee.
The primary objective of PPC is to support students in their placement preparation and acquaint them with the various processes involved. To date, PPC has organised various activities like CV mentoring, mock GDs, and PIs for the first-year students’ SIP process. In the future, PPC plans to carry out the same activities and start many new initiatives which will further help the students in their placement preparation.
