Chronicle Editor @ Oct 10, 2005
Gopal Awasthi writes:

The placement scene at IT-BHU has predictably been pretty upbeat this year. With more than 30 dream jobs(offering more than 5 lakhs p.a.) one can see a lot of happy faces around. The IT-BHU chronicle plans to bring out a full scale review of the placements next month but for this month we decided to do an article on those who have made it big in this years’ placements. These are the people who have got the best paid jobs this year.

(NOTE: The list is not exhaustive but we have tried to cover as many people as we could.)

For achieving any goal three things are required viz. Hardwork, Strategy and Luck. The last one is not in your hand, so no point blaming it; concentrate on the first two.

I?m happy that my efforts and hard work have been well rewarded. I plan to join the company and do my job to the best of my capabilities. Learning and improving is what I've always aimed at and I?m sure this is going to be a great experience

Rs. 6.36 lakh/annum I have a belief that satisfaction leads to stagnation and though I am fairly happy to get a challenging (and high-paying) job, I?m still striving for more. In the short-term, I want to see myself as a recognized digital circuit designer in the electronics engg. domain. I would just like to re-iterate one of my favorite lines from the epic Ulysses that summarizes the desire of an achiever - "to seek, to strive, to find and not to yield".
Karan Gupta

Rs. 6.36 lakh/annum Absolutely satisfied. I'm sure being an Electronics Engg student, its the best job that IT being an given me. First of all I would like to get a taste of the professional world in the form of a core job. But don't be surprised if you find me managing people and companies after a few years, instead of optimizing a digital circuit.

Rs. 6.36 lakh/annum I'm very much satisfied. I wish to do cutting edge research in my field. Anything can happen in placement! Don't go for trends, whatever you put in yourself would never go waste.

No, I am not satisfied. This is not what I had envisaged for myself. I guess I won't be able to exploit my skills in a proper way. Though I have sound core knowledge, I wanted to go into a software company that offers core chemical engineering solutions because all my projects were like that. I would like to crack CAT
