I am averagely satisfied because of the faculty infrastructure and placements.

Placements: I am still in the second year, so I have practically zero experience in placements. However, our seniors got amazing placements, and they were very much satisfied with the offers. Around 50 to 60% of the students got placed with an average salary of Rs. 15,000 per month.

It is a decent college with decent placements and good campus.

Placements: Placements were really good for our senior batch. A good number of companies visited our campus for placements, and they offered some good profiles as well. Placements in our college are 100% except for some students who opt out of the process to join their family business or start-up. Internship placements were also 100% in our college.

Satisfied with good placement.

Placements: Decent enough. Mostly the placement is cent percent with average of 9-10 Lacs per annum. The companies are mostly branded with varied roles. The placements are similar for both work experience people and freshers. There is hardly any variation. Additionally, many jobs are PPO routed.

Flamboyant college life with a very good campus experience. Faculty and placements are decent.

Placements: The placements of our college are decent. Many well-reputed companies like Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, and Barclays, etc., have visited here. More than 80% of the students get placed from our college. Chances of getting a dream company with a salary package of 5 LPA are not that high, but around 20-30 students get placed in their dream companies. Rest of the students get a job in companies like Accenture or TCS who pay an average salary package of 3 LPA. Students accept such job offer...

The college is worth the investment of money and time.

Placements: Placements for our senior batch were good. There are plenty of placement opportunities for finance sector with good profiles including credit risk, financial analysis and ratings. The average salary package was around 9 LPA for seniors. SIP is a little worse due to the lack of profiles to a certain extent, and it is mostly due to the overall industry level. However, profiles offered for finance branch are good including M&A financial analyst etc.

I had a mixed experience at S.K. Somaiya College.

Placements: Placements in the college are average, B.Sc. IT and B.Sc. CS are seated together for the placement drives. Students must have 60% marks in order to be eligible for placements. Companies like TCS, Wipro, L&T, Tech Mahindra, Accenture, Capgemini, etc., visit the college for placements. The average salary package offered is 2-2.50 LPA.

Faculty members in the college have vast experience.

Placements: KJ Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce doesn't provide many placement opportunities. However, the college provides an opportunity or rather guides the students to attend the interview processes in companies. The college should focus on the placements of students as it is an autonomous college, and they also guide the students in the right path.

Satisfied with the college as the faculty members are good.

Placements: The placement process is conducted mainly from January to March. Companies like Wipro, Infosys, Zensar, and Symphony, etc., visit the college to offer placements. The average salary package offered was around 2 LPA. A few companies do have the criteria of 60% score in academics. Placements have been improved a lot in the last two years. Overall, the placements are good, and we are hoping the best for our batch.

A college with wide range of placement opportunities.

Placements: Companies visiting the campus offer a wide range of profiles to students. They definitely provide ample choices and opportunities which help students to explore the nature and working cultures of different organisations, and studying about them gives clarity in pursuing careers. The frequency of company visits keeps the students on toes and ready for their preparation regarding practical exposure to the respective industries.

Absolutely satisfied with decent placements and a brilliant campus.

Placements: KJSCE has provided decent placements for the 2017 batch and even better placements for 2018 and 2019 batches. The average package offered is probably around 5 LPA, the highest package offered was 10 LPA and the lowest being 2.1 LPA. But, we do need placement opportunities in the companies other than the one focusing on coding (IT). All the students irrespective of their branches have no choice but to enter IT companies unless they are offered digital marketing roles.

I'm not happy with electronics engineering course. Faculty and placement training must be improved.

Placements: The average placement package is 3.5 LPA. The highest placement offered was by Google, and they selected just 1 candidate. Bulk placements were offered by Infosys and Accenture. Non-tech companies also visit the college for placements for roles like digital marketing. Microsoft also recruited 2 candidates. The highest placement is observed in IT and computer science.

Good college with good placements.

Placements: The placement for our batch was average since most of the students want to pursue further studies like MBA. Around 30 to 40 percent of the students got jobs in finance and insurance sectors. The highest CTC was 1.5 Lacs per annum and the lowest was 1.2 Lacs per annum. Companies like ICICI, HDFC, LIC visited the campus. Hardly twenty students went for an internship. There was no stipend offered. The students have their own placement cell which is moderately effective.

Faculty coordinators and head student coordinators work tirelessly to make placements with better packages possible for most of the students. But the coordinators may exercise power on other students. Internship stipends are minimal on average, but top ...
