Although a lot of Indian engineers and IT professionals are recruited in the biggest companies, not all of them come to the country for placements. For instance, Apple.
Breaking from that pattern, the tech giant is set to come to an Indian engineering college for the first time. Apple will be coming to International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad (IIIT-H) for recruitments.
A report mentions that TV Devi Prasad, head of placements said that as of now, they are not sure what kind of profiles Apple Inc will be offering them. He further added that this will enable the students to showcase their skills before the firm.
“The requirement for hardware engineers is high this year with many companies looking forward to hiring students with knowledge in application-specific integrated circuit and design verification. There is also high demand for students who have knowledge into 2D-3D graphic in mobile communication,” said Prasad.
According to reports, 350 students across BTech, MTech and MSc research have registered for the placement drive. Not only Apple, Microsoft, Google and Philips have also registered with IIIT-H for placements.
The placement drive will take place in December.
