Dr Biji, kochi
Ans: Dr Biji, (1) Pefer BITS-H-M. (2) As far as Placements are concerned, your son will have three options: Core, Non-Core & IT. He should start upgrading his skills (with Certifications) from 1st year itself till his 4th year - Campus Recruitment Drive. (3) He should seek his Faculties' Advice to upgrade his skills. (4) Besides, he also should also have a Professional LinkedIn Profile from 1st Year itself and put Job Alerts (not to apply) for Core / Non-Core / IT to know the JD of each company to know about the Job Market Trends & upgrade his skills accordingly. (5) He should also keep updating his LinkedIn Profile every 3-5 months with keywords related to his domain / certifications. All the BEST for your Son's Bright Future, Dr.
