Mr. Sahil Nayar, emphasised the critical role of effective Training and Placement Officer (TPO) management in campus recruitment.

It’s equally important for TPOs to effectively communicate the value proposition of these job offers to students and create a win-win situation for both the organisation and the talent.”

Mr. Bhishm Chugani, emphasised the importance of identifying the unique talents and career goals of students and matching them with opportunities that align with their interests and aspirations. This approach can create mutually beneficial outcomes for both organisations and talented students.
