Campus recruitments in India

- Chellamuthu Kuppusamy

With more engineering colleges than decent primary schools, India is producing countless engineering graduates primarily aiming at the lucrative IT industry. These guys look forward to their campus recruitment drives to land up with Infosys, Wipro, HCL and the likes - much to the envy of their parents and uncles next door.

What would these uncles and fuming distant relatives do if they learn about IIT campus recruitment (whatever they call it) outcomes in IIT. Of course, they might have heard about big ticket salaries for IIM gards, but for techies ..

Yes, guys are booked from IITs in the mid Rs 20 lakhs range. No need to be hyped about Samsung's annual package of $150,000 (Rs 81.6 lakh) offered to IIT Madras students. The posting is going to be overseas. But offering more than 20 lakhs tells why we have mushrooming IIT coaching centers in every city right from 7th standard.

Parenting is consumed by envy and greed. Not easy being a parent and good person at the same time, like you are either happy or right in marriage.
