The hard work of your two years: NIT Jamshedpur.
Placements: NIT Jamshedpur has a great record of placement. Presently, they guarantee 100% placement with some terms and conditions according to your academic performance in the program you are going for. Top recruiting companies include L&T Construction, TATA, ACC, BMW, Ford, and Maruti Suzuki. The highest package in Mechanical Engineering this year is 18 LPA and 5 LPA as the minimum.
Infrastructure: Hostels are good only for seniors. For the freshers, you will get Hostel I (very old), but it provides all the common facilities like Wi-Fi and lawns in every room. The mess facilities are present in every hostel. There are enough hostels for the accommodation of each and every student admitted here. There are labs for the respective departments, and LHC is the most generous part. It is the common place where you will visit regularly.
Faculty: The teachers and faculty members are highly helpful to you, but the curriculum of NIT JSR is the toughest among all NITs, and it is very tough to score 9 CGPA/SGPA without proper study, although CGPA matters in placement. The pass percentage of the college is approximately 96%.

All About NIT Jamshedpur by a 2nd year student.
Placements: Placements are pretty decent here. The average package offered for this course was 25LPA in the previous year with the highest of 83 LPA. Top Recruiters were Atlassian, Amazon etc. 30% students got internships in Computer Science department in the above companies. The roles offered in Computer Science are that of software engineer and data analyst.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is decent. The main lecture hall is awesome with all the facilities like Wi-Fi, projector, big classrooms and everything else. The hostels are nice with decent buildings. In this college, you get a single room from 2nd year onwards and a double sharing room in the first year.
Faculty: The faculty is similar to the other colleges. They don't care to teach, neither are the students interested in learning because the course structure is totally outdated and not useful. Their way of teaching is also horrible. The semester exams are not really tough, you can easily pass them with 1 week of efforts getting good grades.

Satisfied with the campus life having decent placements and good higher education.
Placements: Placements are quite decent for M.Sc. students. Generally, the companies invited are that of coaching institutes which may be a startup or a recognised institution. Overall, the average package of a selected candidate is around 7-8 LPA. It is also a decent college if you want to go for higher education.
Infrastructure: Hostel food was the worst, it won't be good in taste, if you are a North Indian, you will have to surrender to the food quality. The best thing was that you get allotted a single room in the hostel, but hygiene is not maintained in the rooms as well as in the washrooms. Infrastructure of our course is decent, they don't take much interest in it.
Faculty: It is not difficult to pass the exams of the semesters. The questions are made from within the syllabus. Faculty of the course is decent and not very good. If you want to pass the exams, it can be done by studying a night before the exams. Some of the teachers are good in nature while the rest take everything for granted.
