DIVISION OF CAREER SERVICES JOB OFFER POLICY for CLASS of 2013

1. A Student can participate in any number of placement drives till he/she gets a job offer. A job offer means final selection in a company whose result may be declared either during the process orally or by way of a subsequent communication either made directly to student or mediated through university. Pre-placement offer or a job offer made to a student during the course of a university facilitated internship/training will also be treated as a valid offer in case of acceptance of the same by the student. 2. At times company/university may prescribe certain more criteria other than eligibility etc to create a filter for assessing the students. This will be binding to the students. 3. Similarly, the companies may also prescribe score-lines of few benchmarking tests like AMCAT etc for assessing the students. This will be binding for students. 4. Students are required to register at placement portal for a drive only after convincing themselves about the nature of job profile, location and other factors etc. 5. Non serious students must not register for a drive. 6. However in case a student fails to register for 5 consecutive drives where he/she was eligible, then it may be taken as a sign of his/her nonseriousness towards placement activities and follow up action including debarment may be taken after seeking explanation. 7. The university shall follow the principle of One student; One offer. Thus in ordinary circumstances, after a student gets an offer through a process facilitated by the University, he/she cannot take part in any other campus recruitment process and is expected to join the company for which he/she got an offer through university.
Comment [L1]: After going through the policy my only apprehension is that are we not somewhere taking away a chance from good students to be placed in good company if that happens to come later in the time line? And in doing so, if our good students do not appear in the interview with them, are we somewhere not reducing our own credibility in terms of quality of students

7.1.

After securing first offer, a student can make an attempt at a

second company provided the package offered by the company is at least 1.5 times more than the one in which he/she has already secured an offer. 7.2. After securing first offer, a student can also make an attempt at a second company if the university declares the drive open to all students or in some cases selectively to some students based on companys criterion or universitys relation etc with that company. 8. However, in ordinary circumstances, extra opportunity at S No 7.1 and 7.2 above shall not be available to those students who have got one offer and whose employer has mandated that students selected should not be allowed to take part in any other process. 9. Similarly, in ordinary circumstances, opportunity at S No 7.1 and 7.2 above shall not be available to students where the company mandates that it would not consider those students who have already secured an offer with any other company in past. 10. In case of student who is from core engineering streams and has secured an offer in an IT/ITES company, he/she may take part in companies of his/her stream irrespective of package condition as stipulated in 7.1 and 7.2 above. This would, however, be subject to conditions as indicated in points 8 and 9 above.. 11. Short listing of the student by a company would not be counted as job offer till result is declared. In the event of his/her getting an offer, the same would be regulated as under: a) SCENARIO ONE: NO PREVIOUS OFFER IN HAND: would be counted as first offer. b) SCENARIO TWO: ONE PREVIOUS OFFER IN HAND: If he gets an offer from a second company where he was shortlisted prior to getting first offer, the student will have the option to choose within 72 hours one job from among any of the two offers. In case no communication is received, the one with higher package will be considered and the other offer shall be deemed to have been surrendered. The onus of conveying his/her option in time lies on students. All offers and short listings till now or in pipeline would stand cancelled. This

c) The moment a student has got first offer, he/she will not be allowed to take part in any new/incomplete process except in the event of a process falling under point 6 and 7 above. 12. A Student can avail any number of offers through Job Fairs, Walk-ins

and from any other source which are not initiated by DoP but he/she must intimate the DoP about the same so that in case there is any verification/enquiry from the company, DoP is in a position to answer the same. The university shall not verify the credentials of any such student who 13. does not intimate DoP about his/her job offers secured whose independently. Student Coordinator Student Placement Coordinator performance is found to be excellent in coordinating the drives will be eligible for one extra offer as a token of Appreciation. The list of such coordinators will be released on 28th February, 2013. 14. In case of any peculiar situation arising out of unforeseen contingencies like 2 results being declared on same day etc, the DSCS may have to take a balanced view on case to case basis and on the facts and merits of the case. Any decision taken under this clause will not be treated as precedence for any future analogies. No request on this count shall be entertained. 15. 16.
