How are the placements at GNLU Gandhinagar?

After 4th year, students are eligible to sit for placements. Some students also receive a pre-placement offer in the 4th year itself. The students are first prepared for day zero, i.e., placement day, beforehand by conducting a mock interview, which is a voluntary session conducted by the placement committee. CV Vetting workshops are also conducted in the eighth semester because at the end of the 8th semester, the placements are made where tier-1 companies like Khaitan, AZB Partners, CAM, SAM, Trilegal, etc. In-house firms like Adani, ICICI Bank, Tata, and more come for recruiting students. Some students sit for placement; others who want to prepare for government exams like judiciary, UPSC, Public Prosecutor, etc. refrain from sitting in placements.

Placements happens only during the final year and the ones who are left for placements a special day called the day 0 is organised. Hence, the college makes all possible ways so that students get places here. Many too corporates including the Adani group comes here for placements. Out of 159 that applied for placements in 2024, 97 students got placed and some of them even were placed in international law firms.

For law students internship after every semester is mandatory. Hence, if they perform well there they can get placements without campus placements. In campus from corporate houses to various big law firms came and offered jobs worth 10-15LPA per annum. The placement percentage dropped significantly in our year and I don't know why but only half the students had placements from the campus. However, some students got placements worth 20LPA or more from our campus.

Students become eligible for placements as soon as they enter 5th year when the day zero is conducted. On the said day, atleast 5-6 tier-1 law firms come to induct students into their offices. Average package ranges around 14-16 lakhs. Last year around 80% stufents got offers from various firms

From the fourth year of LL.B and the last semester of LL.M, students start to get pre-placement offers if they have interned in any corporate law firm or with any senior advocate. apart from this, there is one placement cell in university which is headed by a seniormost professor in university. The placement packages vary from 26 Lakhs at the highest to 4 Lakh at the lowest, depending on the organisation in which students get a job.
