DU JOB  FAIR-2013


On Tuesday, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dixit inaugurated the Job fair. She described it as a constructive step which assured that a large number of students will able to gain employment through the fair. She also referred about the Job fair organised by Delhi Government at Pusa for Polytechnic/ITI Pass-outs which facilitated Job opportunities to 4,000 students. Mrs. Dixit also announced that government will also planning to open admissions in its Skill Development Institute being setup in Jaunpur in association with the Government of Singapore.


As far as the Students were concerned the DU Job fair was not able to satisfy them completely.
Most of the graduate Students at the Fair complained that only Business Process Outsourcing (BPOs) and Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPOs) companies were there for the recruitment.
Students told the media that although Companies like Wipro and Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) were also there but they are only hiring students only for the BPO and the back end calling process.


Although no one can denies the fact that the Job fair was quite helpful for the B.com student but there is actually nothing for the science students.
As the Job fair was also opened for the outside students so there was also a good crowd of students who are coming from universities and Institutes other than DU.




A Student from Rajasthan Technical University told the media, “Seeing the queue at the registration desk I was hopeful, but there is nothing substantial for people with technical background."

Companies at Job fair includes Genpact, Max Bupa, Wipro, Bharati Axa, Convergys, VLCC and many more like these.

According to DUSU president Arun Hooda, 1700 students were shortlisted by companies while 150 students were given offer letters.

The minimum pay package offered at the fair was Rs 1.2 lakh per annum and the maximum was Rs 6 lakh per annum by Genpact.
