"The Secret of Success is Constancy of Purpose"-Disraeli

The quest to succeed mirrored on the faces of every NITIEan, as Summer Placements for the batch of 2009 took off in style. With loads of companies lined up for the recruitment process, the students were raring to have a go at their dream companies. NITIE has seen amazing placements happen over the years and this year the records have only got better.
The placement process had companies from various sectors come down to the campus and offer projects across varied domains. The projects would be implemented in the respective companies and provide a platform for the students to implement the knowledge acquired so far into practice. This provided an opportunity for the students to judiciously make a choice and choose projects and companies based on their desired career paths.
The process involved the participation of over 60 companies and the total number of offers made was 1.6 times the total number of offers accepted. This year saw leading organizations like Lehman Brothers and J.P. Morgan Chase participating in the summer placement process.
The placements in the Banking and Financial Services sector were an apt indicator of the growing interest in this domain.

Commercial Finance, DSP Merrill Lynch, American Express, HSBC, Citibank, Standard Chartered and ICICI Prudential.
