Placements: I've been offered placements via emails. They notify me and tell the selected students to fill out the job application and go for an interview. Only 3 students from my class out of 22 were selected for placement, but I'm studying microbiology. The companies were offering jobs in my field, such as Maruti Suzuki sales executive role or BPO call center role, which are completely opposite of my selected course.
Placements: Not many people are placed after B.Sc. If you develop skills and gain knowledge, you will definitely be good. If you want to get opportunities, they are given after you complete M.Sc. Many people are placed from our seniors into reputed companies. The lowest package offered is 2.5 LPA, the average is 3.5-4.5 LPA, and the highest can go 7-10 LPA. Many top companies like Amazon, etc., do give placement to Biotechnology if you're good enough. The HOD of your department will be sending you to more r...
