Studied at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

I have a friend at IIEST Shibpur and here is his insight on the IT placements at the institute.

The placement statistics at IT in IIEST are excellent. The esteemed companies that are recruiters for IT include PwC, Veritas, HSBC, Microsoft, Adobe, TCS, CTS, Wipro, Infosys, etc. You will be offered internships in your 3rd year. The major recruiters in IIEST are IT companies. Therefore, from the IT department, the majority of students are able to receive placements except for a few.

Here is the highlight of recent placement statistics at the institutes.

Which IIM is better if I want to pursue MBA in marketing, IIM RAIPUR or IIM ROHTAK?

SG
Sahil Gupta Posted On : January 21st, 2023
PGP - MBA from Indian Institute of Management Raipur (Graduated 2022)

Both the IIMs, IIM Rohtak and IIM Raipur give an edge to each other in the sense that they have similar faculty, teaching methodology, rankings, placements, and brand value. 

However, IIM Rohtak has a locational advantage being situated in the NCR region. This attracts more corporates and companies for placements. It also has a bigger batch size than IIM Rohtak and a strong alumni base.

Ultimately it’s you who decides the B School that is most suitable for you. Both these IIMs are almost similar but I have to say IIM Rohtak gives a slight edge to IIM Raipur.

What is the difference between IIM Raipur (Talentedge) and MICA (upGrad) digital marketing courses? Which one is better in terms of course modules, fees, and placements?

HN
Hardik Nagar Posted On : February 8th, 2023
MA in DAV Public Schools, India & Veda Vyasa DAV Public School Vikas Puri, DAV Public Schools, India (Graduated 2016)

When it comes to choosing a business school for a Digital Marketing program, both MICA and IIM Rajpur offer similar curriculum options. Both institutes offer a range of courses and modules related to digital marketing. However, it is important to consider more than just the curriculum when making your decision. Digital marketing is a field of study that aims to unite all sellers, manufacturers, intermediaries, producers, products, and services on one digital platform, making them easily accessible to people around the globe. It is a growing field of study for several reasons:

  • Anyone with a graduate degree can pursue this course, regardless of their background.
  • This course is highly location-independent, allowing you to learn and work from anywhere.
  • It requires minimal investment in terms of time and money for a lifelong asset.
  • When you have learned the subject thoroughly and properly covered all the important areas of the modules, you can end up earning a high salary across reputed organizations around the globe.

While the institutes will provide you with basic knowledge, you can also find the same information on free resources like blogs, YouTube videos, websites, posts, and books. Additionally, the knowledge of all the modules is not enough. It's important to grab the best certifications available online like Hubspot, Google, Facebook Blueprint, Adwords Certifications, and V skill Certifications, among others. You need to get more than 70% practical along with theory, and the knowledge of tools is a must. Without the knowledge of these tools, you would learn only half-baked digital marketing.

In this case, it becomes very tough to choose between MICA or IIM Rajpur as both provide the same basic level of education. However, there is one institute that is known as a pioneer of digital marketing for decades, Digital Vidya. They offer the best knowledge of all popular modules and tools with a majority of practical and interesting sessions. They also provide recordings of every class, and a question-and-answer platform to clear all your doubts, making them the best institute for learning Digital Marketing. They also provide 100% job assistance and are quite famous for their internships. The links and connections that they provide are also helpful as a fresher it's a tough job to achieve good chains of links.

In conclusion, it's important to plan and strategize to become the best in the field of digital marketing. Digital Vidya is a great option to consider if you want to gain a comprehensive understanding of the subject and get the best job opportunities.

Which college should I choose for CSE, IET Lucknow or JSS Noida? The fees are not an issue. Focus on environment, campus, hostel and what is taught in CSE.

AA
Aishikh Arora Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studies CSE at JSS Noida, (2018)

I can give you some information on both institutes since I have friends from both IET Lucknow and JSS Noida. Based on the reviews that I got from my friends I will say choosing JSS Noida will be better. It has a locational advantage, which plays a crucial role.

  • The curriculum of JSS Noida is in accordance with the current industry trends. In the first two semesters, you will learn the same courses as any other engineering institutes in India. You can get the detailed syllabus from the website.
  • JSS has a good reputation in the industry. Alumni of the institute are working on Google, Microsoft, etc. Many reputed companies visit the campus for the placement drive including IBM, Wipro, TCS, Amazon, etc.

For IET, the location is an issue. The faculty and curriculum are not that great either. So, I will suggest you choose JSS Noida.
