“Anticipating the future consequences of the recent global economy meltdown, the institute also plans to incorporate industry, alumni and students' feedback to fine-tune the 2010 placement season”, added Mr. Lakhara.
In FDDI, the students are placed through the campus recruitment programme. The placement activities are coordinated by a placement committee headed by Placement Coordinator, student representatives and faculty members.
“In another month-long rolling process, more companies are expected to visit FDDI for the campus recruitment process and with this, we are optimistic that this year too, FDDI will achieve 100% placement for its students.” - Mr. Shashi Bhushan Shukla, IRS, Secretary, FDDI.
Given the present economic situation, the number of recruiters is also increasing along with batch strength in FDDI. So, it becomes necessary to make changes to the slot structure and adjust to the situation at hand.
