Students from Dibrugarh, Sivasagar and Jorhat appeared in the interviews and personality tests in the college. Overall the vacancies found were about 500.
Talking about the event, Director of the Training & Placement Cell Radheesh Gopalan said “Most of the candidates are not aware about the opportunities hence they are confused about finding the right job because of lack of knowledge about them.” He admitted that employment is an issue for every student but the problem is just the channel.
112 students were selected out of 354 candidates for placement in Tata Motors, Bajaj Automobile, JCB India, Piaggio and Hyundai.
“There are companies who are looking for candidates with skills, but they are unable to reach them because none of them have vacancies in Assam.” Gopalan said. He explained that the job fair was aimed at providing opportunities to qualified candidates belonging to rural areas.
