Absolutely disappointed with the placement during my batch 2022.

Placements: Many of us are placed, but only a few are being called by the company. The remaining are not even called by the selected company. The top LPA placed is 7 LPA and around 70 to 80 are placed among 120 students. More disappointment regarding the placement of the college. Placement would have been somewhat better.

The Sona College: The life to remember.

Placements: The placements available here are very good as the college is connected with bigger and top multinational companies like Wipro, TCS, etc. By which the students' life is getting very good with an average package of Rs 4 Lacs per year. It is very useful for the students.

No enjoyment. I feel like school time study and not worth the money.

Placements: It was a waste of time and money. I think the college is very poor, but the professors are all good. Every company came to the college campus for placements, but no one was selected. The companies came and assessed us, but not even one person passed the interview. The college did not provide proper training for campus placements.

I'm satisfied about my college.

Placements: The placement is not that much good. You have to pass your semester exams. No matter how much you've scored, if you have skills, you can get a job. They're also offering a placement development program to enhance your skills. The skill development program.

I'm satisfied with going to college.

Placements: In our college, the placements are not that much good. But if you're looking for experience, it's okay to be placed there. The salary expectation would be around 2 LPA, and if you've skills, maybe you can be placed in a good company and get up to 3.5 LPA. They're offering you a skill development course before your placements. The placement training is okay.

Placements need improvement. Canteen lacks variety, and bus services are poor.

Placements: A lot of students were placed, but they are placed in very low-package companies. They have very low packages, and not many top recruiting companies are available here, only small local companies. Most of the students were placed, but they are not satisfied.
