They are good, but they can get better.

Placements: The placement of the senior batch was almost 100%, and the current batch placement is going good, but not as great as the previous year's placements. The average package is about Rs. 8 lakhs. The summer placement for both the senior and junior placements was 100%. The roles offered for the summer Internship are very poor, and only a handful of them get good roles, but the roles for the final placements were good. The average stipend for the summer internship is Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 25,000. There is...

Average placements. The faculty are good.

Placements: Placements of the college are 100%. Many reputed companies visit the campus for placements. Average to good roles were offered to the students. Further details cannot be disclosed. Placement committee is overly secretive. Barely any details are given to the students. We have no right to reject PPOs. Many times, students are forced to appear for companies out of their interest.

I had a great and memorable time at KJSCE.

Placements: The placements are good. The basic package is almost same, around 3 LPA. You should try to maintain at least 60% aggregate to be even eligible to participate in most companies. Some have 55% too while some students who were offered with higher packages have 65-70%. Most of the students get placed. The maximum placement of all the branches in IT CSE only.

A good college, with decent placements and an effective ROI.

Placements: The placement was decent. The maximum salary offered was 24LPA. The lowest was 4.5 LPA. The average salary offered was about 8LPA. The roles offered varied in sales, analytics, digital, in marketing, etc. Also, it had good companies with finance operations, HR and marketing. The placement could have been better, but with markets struggling, it took a bit of a hit.

Review Of KJSIMSR - A good balance of curriculum and curricular activities.

Placements: Placements in our college had a consistent rise. The economic slowdown did affect the placements but there was a gradual improvement eventually and found good companies from all the sectors eventually. Good average. Good ROI for MS. Great. Awesome.

The great ROI, amazing infrastructure, but average faculty.

Placements: More than 130 companies visit our campus on an average every year. The top 30% of the batch gets placed at amazing companies with great profiles. The rest get decent packages, and overall, the college boasts of an average CTC of 9.4 LPA. The final placements are given more importance than the summer placements.

Dissatisfied because of the faculty and management, but it has good placements.

Placements: The placements are decent with top companies from almost every sector come to the campus to hire the students. The placements for the Finance and Marketing courses are good, but for the HR stream, they are not at par with them. The companies pay decent, and salaries are almost equal to an industry average.
