Even after studying from IIT, only 30 thousand rupees job, once again thousands of graduates remained unemployed!


IIT Bombay on Tuesday said that about 75 percent of the students have got jobs in campus placements for the academic year 2023-24. This year the institute has achieved its second biggest achievement in placements. IITs often present their excellent placement figures. However, a recent analysis tells a different story. In contrast to these success stories, a large number of students in these institutes were found unemployed after the 2024 campus placement season. Apart from this, many students have received a package of Rs 4 lakh after graduation from IIT.
