Ans: His CGPA is slightly low. For a job the CGPA should be around 7.5-8.0. But now CGPA can't be changed. Let him go for a good certification course in AI and Machine learning. These two are the need of the day. He is B. Tech in IT. He must be knowing coding well. But if he is not comfortable then before going for the certificate course let him practise CODING by viewing YOU TUBE videos for two months. This six-seven months certificate course will help him in good placement. Best of luck to your son. Just follow me. MAY GOD BLESS HIM. Regards. Professor........................:)

Ans: Hello Ranjan
Not only JUIT but many more universities and colleges also failed to place the students for a few years as they promised at the time of admission via advertisements. But out of 300, just 20 placed is quite a notable number. You did not mention, where this trend is for this year or if it is happening for a few years! But, now there is no point in keeping names to the placement division of JUIT as you have to focus on the future of your son.
Here are some tips: (1) Ask your son to create a strong C.V. if something is lagging in it from the market condition point of view. (2) Ask him to learn the new techniques in AI + ML as early as possible i.e. Strengthen Technical Skills (3) Create a strong profile on LinkedIn (4) Keep a close eye on the placement offers published in national-level newspapers and employment newspapers. (5) Ask him to keep in touch with his seniors who are working in the companies and if there is any vacancy there (6) Without thinking much more, just apply for the job in the respective companies of his interests where the advertisement Is published or not. (7) Ask him to learn extracurricular activities and try to focus on personality building to get a suitable job without having any irritation in the mind and body language. (8) If possible, try to get the admission to PG. Many colleges offer stipends at the time of PG learning.
Even though there is a recession in the job industry at present, there is no need to worry. This phase is temporary and soon the conditions will be favorable to unemployed youths. Best of luck to your son for his bright future.
