Air India, Microsoft, Texas Instruments, Goldman Sachs, Bajaj Auto, and Ola Electric are among the top recruiters during this phase, offering jobs to a significant number of students on campus.
Speaking about the current placement season, R Ayothiraman, professor in charge of the Office of Career Services, said, "Though it was anticipated to be a challenging year, we have performed well in Phase 1 of the placement session. We appreciate the recruiters believing in our students' talent and potential and providing offers at this scale. We congratulate the students for being strong and giving their best."
The majority of students were placed in the core (technical) sector, followed by the Information Technology (IT) sector, which is also significant for departments like Computer Science, Mathematics, and Computing. Additionally, students in the Management Studies department primarily secure roles in the 'Management' sector.
Dr Anishya O Madan, the Industrial Liaison Officer at the Office of Career Services, IIT Delhi, said that the core sector has recruited more students compared to previous years.
The commencement of the second phase of placements is scheduled for mid-January, with the placement season extending from December to May for the institute's full-time hiring of both undergraduate and postgraduate students.
