PLACEMENT CELL REPORT

"O God, teach me to be generous; to serve you as you deserve; to give without counting the cost; to fight without fear of being wounded; to work without seeking rest; and to live without expecting any reward, but the knowledge that I am doing
your will." - St. Ignatius of Loyola
St. Xavier's College's Placement Unit is among Calcutta University's oldest and mostactive placement cells. It acts as a clear interlink between academia and the businessworld. The Placement Cell has proven to be the initial and final point for all placementsas a congruent forum where a company's search for jobs meets the ultimate aim of astudent's job.
The Placement Cell, a team of 10 driven leaders, led by a shared purpose of bringingnumerous opportunities to the campus, aims to ensure that each job seeker meets hisemployer. In the past, organizations that deliver broad profiles ranging from analyzes toanalysis to articleships have recruited. Other recruiters in the past include Ernst andYoung, KPMG, DE Shaw, Mckinsey, PwC, Deloitte and Oberoi Hotels according to trend.
The placement cell has always tried to recognize the ability of each applicant, and has
worked unconditionally to develop programs to fine-tune skills and cultivate talent.
Starting in their first year, students are introduced to prestigious internship
opportunities to eventually offer a finesse to their corporate acumen by the time they are
able to sit in their final year for recruitment procedures. In keeping with the college
administration's dream, the Cell aims to empower students to meet the rising corporate
world's needs.
The 2019-20 Placement Session marked yet another amazingly successful Placement Cell
session. This continuing progress can be attributed to our illustrious faculty and a special
mention to Rev. Dr. Dominic Savio, SJ – Principal, Dr. Amitava Roy – Placement
Coordinator and a group of professors whose mentoring and deep conviction contributed
to a successful placement session where students were put across various roles of their
choosing. All the activities of the Cell are led by Mr. Niladri Sinha and the Student Core
Committee, which consists of students from different courses in their final year. We aim
to invite companies from various fields in order to make opportunities available not just
for students of business and science, but also arts.
The Placement Cell is profoundly grateful to all the people whose contributions made this
project a new benchmark for success. The Cell successfully collaborated with corporate
giants such as Ernst & Young, PWC, Deloitte, KPMG, J. P. Morgan and D.E. Shaw,
Byju's, Mckinsey, etc. during the workshop, thereby supplying the graduating batch with
competitive placement opportunities complemented by lucrative pay packages and
different profiles.
A total of more than 900 students enrolled from different backgrounds for the placement
session including Math, English, Mathematics, Economics, Commerce and so on. In the
placement session which saw number of companies offering an averageof
Rs. 6/- lacs pa, the immense trust of the leading organizations in the St.
Xavier's College students' exceptional capabilities were evident. The most
impressive bundle was priced by 7 companies offered above Rs.10/- lacs pa.
The highest package was offered by D. E. Shaw of Rs. 21/- lacspa.
Apart from placements, the past year has also seen various workshops. We
hope to conduct many more workshops on different areas ranging from
Stock Markets to Career Counselling, Soft Skill Development and
Education fairs. Besides this Deloitte US-India organized Graduateschool
of Maverick completion and our students got the 3rd rank.
Whether permanent placements or internship opportunities, the Cell has a
pool of various experiences to cater for the students with, but this year the
team collaborated with another cell, the Entrepreneurship Development
Cell, to host Initium: The Internship Expo. A first of its kind event in the
glorious history of the institution was specifically designed to provide
internship opportunities to students of all years and departments as such
opportunities help students in garnering experience and skillsets hands-on
from the business world. The event was a big success, as over 48 companies
came onboard and we got close to 1000 unique registrations from students
showing an interest in acquiring internships which were beingoffered.
With more than 100 students being offered internship roles withmonthly
stipends ranging up to Rs 20,000, the event was termed a grand success
with a local daily covering the event in one of its printedition.
In conclusion, the Placement Cell has added another productive year to its
history, with a track record of growing the amount of opportunities for the
students and alumni. The team worked tirelessly to achieve yet another
milestone.

the top of Mount Everest or to the top of your career”.
