In this, about 30 firms hired from diverse sectors such as technology, consulting, pharmaceuticals and analytics.
In the second stage of the final placement process, firms were grouped into cohorts based on the profile offered, and groups of cohorts were invited to the campus across different clusters. Firms from multiple domains participated across the three clusters in the final placements, with students being placed across more than 10 cohorts.
