Placement Cell

About Us

KUSOM Placement Cell was launched in the year 2011 with an aim to bridge the gap between academia and the corporate world. The Cell is completely run and managed by students under the leadership of a faculty member who acts as its coordinator. It facilitates undergraduate and postgraduate students to get placements in various organizations by sharing information regarding potential company vacancies and by hosting the recurring annual mega event—KUSOM Job and Internship Fair (KJIF). Besides these, the activities of the Cell include organizing events like presentations by companies, guest lectures, training programs, and workshops, alumni connect, etc., in order to produce industry-ready graduates.

Activities of the Cell

The event is usually held for a day or two depending upon the number of participating companies. Such companies are usually around 30-50 each year hiring KUSOM graduates through KJIF.

Company Presentations and Guest Lectures: Company presentations are organized for the benefit of students to make them understand better about and get them familiarized with the companies and also to get an overview of the sector they represent/belong to alongside. Listening to the representatives from the company facilitates in making well thought through career choices. Such interactive guest sessions also help students understand the real-life scenarios and the way organizations succeed in dealing with and tackling them.

Orientation into Specialization Subjects/Disciplines: KUSOM Placement Cell, in coordination with both Graduate and Undergraduate Departments, organizes lecture sessions by inviting industry experts from diverse backgrounds who share their expert views and advice in an effort to help students make the right choice of subjects/disciplines to major in and specialize before they graduate.

Organizations receive several benefits from out of their collaboration with KUSOM Placement Cell. Some of them are:

        Enhancing the level of brand awareness among students and graduates via company presentations and guest lecture sessions that help them to interact with prospective candidates and assess if they fit into their organization or not.
