76% of engineering candidates in India have not received any job offer despite campus placement provisions

Committed to expanding the employability of India’s tech pool through its niche programs and boot camps, BridgeLabz solution LLP has now surveyed engineering graduates on its platform vis-a-vis job placement. The latest online survey conducted by India’s largest IP-driven incubation lab comprised a sample size of close to 1000 candidates (including 60% boys and 40% girls) hailing from different engineering disciplines. It has revealed some of the major concerns of the job seekers today.

The survey’s findings reinstate the need to address the skill gap by making engineers ‘job ready’ in our post-pandemic world. 76% of the respondents admitted having an active placement cell in their colleges while the rest claimed otherwise. It is noteworthy that although a majority of students admitted to having active placement cells, only a little more than computer science vs engineering of respondents at 24% have been able to receive a job through them. While a major chunk of students are devoid of any job offers. This implies that a whopping 78.64% of students do not currently have any job in hand.
