According to reports, in a first-ever instance, a final-year Bachelor of Management Studies (BMS) student from St Xavier’s College in Mumbai has received a job offering a salary package of INR 30 lakhs per annum.

As reported by Hindustan Times, in Jai Hind College where the placement process is still underway, the highest salary package received is similar to last year and the institute witnessed a growing trend of more Edu-Tech and Fin-Tech companies offering jobs to their students. Moreover, students have also opted for jobs which not only offer a good profile and package but also permit them the flexibility of applying for further studies along with their job.

Even though several companies are still waiting for the lockdown to end before bringing fresh employees on-board, in some cases, the companies have already welcomed students with a virtual orientation programme.

In view of the outbreak of the coronavirus and the subsequent lockdown, colleges across the state had shut down back in March 2020. Moreover, the government is to soon issue a list of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to all colleges and universities in the state for reopening with regards to the pandemic.

According to sources, the classes will be held on a rotational basis and 50 per cent attendance has to be maintained. Speaking about the same, Dr Meena Chintamaneni, Registrar, SVKM's NMIMS, stated, "We welcome the government's decision to open schools and universities. We have received the state government notification today, and are reviewing it internally. We remain committed to student safety, and will issue our plan of action according to the notification soon."
