If you're considering colleges in Greater Noida, GL Bajaj is a top choice. It excels in both academics and placements, providing great support for students to prepare for jobs and develop their personalities.
NIET is another solid option worth considering. While it's a good college, I'd recommend trying for GL Bajaj first. If you can't get in there, then NIET is definitely a good alternative.
From my experience, NIET Greater Noida might not live up to the hype they create about placements and the college environment. Having studied there, I can share some insights. When choosing a college, most people focus on two main things: the college's reputation and job placements. Ratings can differ across websites, but here's what I know about NIET.
TCS is the biggest recruiter at NIET, open to all branches. Besides TCS, companies like UHG and Capgemini show interest, but mostly for CS/IT students. There are also a few firms that offer jobs based on specific branches, but the majority of recruitment is for roles in sales, marketing, and business analysis.
Unfortunately, the Civil Branch doesn't see much in terms of job offers. The teaching staff, except for some excellent and seasoned first-year faculty, might not meet your expectations. NIET boasts about its placements, but a closer look reveals that many positions are sales-related. While the Indian Army and Navy visit annually, during my time there, I didn't hear of anyone securing a job with them. The college considers students who pass the first round of interviews as 'placed,' which inflates their placement statistics.
If you have consistently scored 70% and are set on getting a job in your field, you might consider NIET, as finding employment is key. However, with a 70% score, you might also look at colleges like GL Bajaj or Galgotias College. The campus Wi-Fi isn't great, requiring a VPN even for basic access like YouTube. Plus, there are no major festivals or opportunities for exposure.
In conclusion, if you're aiming for a sales role, NIET could be a fit. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it unless it's your only choice, and even then, proceed with caution or reconsider engineering altogether.
No, definitely not. I went to NIET in Greater Noida and it's probably the worst choice for finishing your degree. There are hardly any placements, except for a few in the CS and IT branches, and even those are limited. They don't really have cultural festivals, and even during technical events, there's constant disruption. Life there isn't great. The director and HOD aren't helpful at all.
Most teachers lack proper knowledge, but they'll still make you chase after that 75% attendance, which doesn't really matter. The campus feels like a tiny CBSE school; it's really small. The management? They're just out to get your money. They never return your security deposit in full. For a 5000 hostel security deposit, you might get back only 2500, with excuses like you ate too much in the mess.
After two years, you might only see 4500 out of a 10000 college security deposit, and they pile on fines for ridiculous reasons. The ratings and placement stats are all fake; I got caught up in the lies because of misleading information. Please support and help share this reality. I'm a frustrated NIET graduate who didn't get placed and didn't get my security deposit back.
