Online Recruitment:
The University has set up an online recruitment system for the companies that have
shown interest in the placement. The university has specially developed the system
following the demand of firms that wanted to conduct recruitment interviews online
to save time and other resources. Taking the advantage of the newly introduced system,
ATTKINS Global has decided to conduct an online test for candidates on February
5th. After the test, the company officials will visit the campus for further rounds
of test.
Special Session:
CEPT has conducted a special session for its students and advised them to not take
decision in a hurry. This is aimed at reducing attrition ratio. Students have been
given time to decide if they want to join the firm. The appointment letters will
be given only once students make their mind to join.
