A short note on my college.

Placements: Currently, I'm pursuing English honours. As per my knowledge, I got to know that for the past two years, students and the students of the final year used to get recruitment from various fields. One of the recent recruitment was from Senco Gold and diamond. Which recruited some students from our department also.

Good placement, internships, great teaching faculty and campus.

Placements: There is a good amount of around a hundred students in B.A. Journalism Honors and B.A. Journalism Multidisciplinary combined. The college gives out internships in a fair amount, especially more from this year since internships are mandatory. The students get internships from companies like News 18 Bangla, TV9 Bangla, ABP, etc.

It is a good college. Students will have their best time.

Placements: This is a normal graduate college so, don't think about placement. In this course, students either opt for higher studies or go for normal jobs after graduation. There are some courses where students can get placements from college. The top courses offered are statistics, economics, and commerce.

Review of Vivekananda College, Kolkata.

Placements: It is a degree college, so in the mainstream subjects, we don't have any kind of placement facilities. We have to apply for a master's degree in other colleges and universities, but it is a renowned college. In other colleges, we get low special care.

The college has really good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: There are no such placements for degree courses. Students need to apply for higher studies, and only after that, one can get some placement offer. As this is a government college, there is a little chance of getting placements from college. Students have to apply for placements on their own.

A college with an awesome infrastructure and faculty.

Placements: There were no placement opportunities as such, and the reason for the same is not known. I think the students don't have the skillsets that are required to get jobs in the domain of economics. M.Sc course or any masters degree might be mandatory, and it may be the minimum criterion for getting a job. There were no opportunities for internships too.

Review of Vivekananda College, Kolkata.

Placements: Placement drives were conducted in our college, for the whole year. Reputed companies like Microsoft, Samsung, SalesForce, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, Adobe, Visa, Ge Digital, PWC and many others visited the college and recruited students. They offered attractive packages ranging from 4 LPA-40 LPA. Few students opt for higher studies, so the placement percentage was not 100%. The average package offered for CSE students was 10 LPA-12 LPA, and it was 6 LPA to 8 LPA for IT students.

Vivekananda is the presidency of south.

Placements: Vivekananda College is also known as the presidency of south Kolkata. Admission is strictly based on merit, but not on effective politics. From my batch, four students got selected for IIT (2 Guwahati, 1 Hyderabad, and 1 Kharagpur). Five students are studying in IIEST, Shibpur. Many others are doing M.Sc. in various colleges mostly in Rajabazar, Presidency, and St. Xavier.
