Some of the top recruiting companies are Microsoft, Reliance, Samsung, Oracle, and more. IIEST offers the highest placements across the Information Technology branch with an average salary of 5 LPA.

Should I prefer civil engineering in IIT Hyderabad or CSE in RVCE?
My suggestion would be to opt for IIT Hyderabad Civil Engineering and prepare for a branch change.
IITs cannot be compared to any private college other than BITS. Even if you are unable to change your branch, don’t feel disheartened as the IIT Brand name is more than enough.
I know many people who were part of the Chemical, Biotech, and Civil Engineering branches of IIT and are earning more than 12 LPA currently. Irrespective of the branch you belong to, IITs offer an excellent coding culture making you proficient in the same. The quality of peer groups you will be interacting with is also better at IITs than at private colleges like RVCE.
All in all, IIT as a brand is better than RVCE and other private colleges except BITS.
I have 6 years of work experience in IT and wish to get into product management. Which is a better course to join - ISB's PGP or IIM Bangalore's EPGP
There are two scenarios for product management
- B2B: Business to Business product management does not necessarily require MBA
- B2C: Business-to-customer product management is better with an MBA degree. The placements for MBA will get you a high-paying job in B2C product management. B Schools like ISB prefer a work experience of at least 4-6 years. Roles offered through placements include senior product manager to product manager.
The fact is no matter what your skills are, this industry is biased towards MBA. So the final decision should depend on what you are going for.

How good is SPJIMR's PGDM? I’m looking at the current placement records of over 26L average. Is it performing better than top B-schools like XLRI/FMS/IIM?
SPJIMR has been among the top 5 or 10 B Schools over the past few years consistently. Its brand value can be compared to XLRI, FMS, and even IIMs except for IIM ABC. This is because even now there are some roles offered to IIM ABC students that are not offered at SPJIMR. But this is not a major issue as these roles seek only extraordinary profiles and In Fact, many other roles offered at IIM ABC are lower than average.
In SPJIMR even the lowest package is decent and the range of salary is not very broad. This year, SPJIMR's average package stood at INR 33.02 LPA.
Other key points to note in comparison to old IIMs is that our Highest CTC is lower than that of IIMs but our Lowest CTC is higher than that of IIMs. So I will suggest anyone with an exceptionally good profile to choose IIM whereas someone with a decent average profile should go for SPJIMR only. It is important to note that getting roles at SPJIMR is a bit easier than IIMs mainly because of the small batch size and less competition.
Which course is better to join, NIT Silchar, ECE, or a 5-year course of CSE at IIITDM Kancheepuram?
The record of placement statistics at NIT Silchar and IITDM Kancheepuram has been relatively the same in recent years. The core recruiters who are working on AR and VR grab students from the CSE department, especially those who are skilled in coding. IITDM Kacheepuram has an added advantage for the students as they offer design courses other than core courses, which is beneficial during the interview session. IITDM is also leading in offering efficient classes, experienced faculties, good infrastructure, and hostel facilities to the students.
The final decision should be made based only on your interests.
