Excellent opportunities available for students who want to get a job after engineering are through campus placements. Universities and reputed colleges offer recruitment through campus placements.
Students should prepare for campus placements before the course is completed. Usually engineering colleges conduct campus placements between December and April every year. But placements were halted due to the current Covid-19 pandemic. Although some companies are conducting selection processes online... dilemma prevails when the full recruitment process will begin.

Don't waste time
Covid-19 has a negative impact not only on campus placements of engineering but on many areas. As a result, only a handful of campus placements have been scheduled since December. Rest of the placements are uncertain. Students should not only rely on campus placements but take advantage of all the opportunities offered. Some companies are conducting online testing and interviews and selecting candidates. First-time job seekers shouldn't look for permanent jobs as in the past.
