ST Xavier's Kolkata Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

The Placement Cell of SXC recruits students for working in many brands and companies. At least in the B.Sc. and B.Com. courses, from the second year (3rd semester) onwards students are eligible for registration to placements. The companies that recruit students are mainly from the pharmaceutical, software and academic sectors. Some of them are the Tata Consultancy Services, Jp Morgan, Reckitt Benckiser, Deloitte, Cognizant, Infosys and Flipkart. The package pertaining to these companies typically range between INR 3 L to INR 20.5 L. Around 70 to 80 % of the students get placed regularly in the top companies each and every year. After getting the bachelors degree, I plan to pursue a Masters in Chemistry and delve deeper into the extensive research carried out in this field of science.

Students become eligible for campus placements from the 5th semester. Name of companies visited - Deloitte, PWC, L&T, J.P. Morgan, Google, Wipro, ICICI Bank, Usha, UBS, Cognizant, Ernst and Young, Axis Bank, Godrej, Tata Capital, Infosys, Zomato, HDFC Bank, D.E. Shaw, KPMG, Swiss Re, Aditya Birla Capital, Viacom, MTS, Asian Paints, Decathlon and many more. On an average, each company made an offer of 4 vacancies for the students of the B.Com course. Highest package was 21 lakhs which was offered by D.E. Shaw and average package was 6 lakhs. Over 30% students got placed. My plan is to pursue Chartered Accountancy after getting the degree.

The placements are good. I won’t say exceptional but they’re good. You have giants like EY, KPMG, Deloitte, Google, Reckitt Benckiser, Tata, PwC, etc visiting the campus every year. These are just to name a few. In addition to this there are also local businesses or start ups that give Xavier's a visit.

A great number of new as well as regular companies visited our college for Placement this year. It started off in August with Futures First being the first, followed by companies such as Tata Consultancy Services, Deloitte, KPMG, Ernst & young, PWC, JP Morgan, Google, Zomato, United bank of Switzerland, Verity Solutions, Axis Bank, Citi Bank, ICICI Bank, HSBC, HDFC Bank, Swiss Re, Oyo Rooms, DE Shaw, Reckitt Benckiser, MuSigma, Pricewaterhouse Coopers, Infosys, Viacom 18, Ogilvy, ICRA, MGH, Mckinsey, Boston Consultancy, Sony India Ltd, Titan, ITC, Z S Associates, Zomato, Addidas, Uber, Grofers and Cognizant. We have placed more than 500 students through on campus drives and off campus interviews from departments like B.Com, BBA, M.Com, Economics (Hons.), Mathematics (Hons.), Biotechnology, English(Hons.), Statistics (Hons.), Political Science (Hons.) and Computer Science, with the annual CTC ranging from Rs. 3 lacs to Rs.20.5 lacs.

BA in English is a very future-proof course for getting a job in the IT companies and I liked the course from the very beginning, that's why I chose the course. There are very good faculties present in the college (About 10-12 faculties in every Department) and the number of students is about 60-70 every department in every year. Every faculty members are MA qualified. Their teaching quality is very good, they explain the topic very simply so that everyone can understand the topic. There are 4 internal theory exams in each semester. If everyone classes regularly then they can easily pass the examination.

My course was Bcom honors but the faculties are very very impressive, you don't have to refer to any other book or videos but they teach in a full-fledged manner. This college is one of the renowned College in India

After completion of the whole course, off-campus placements start taking place. Companies like Deloitte, PWC, etc. Offer campus placement. Nearly around 70% of the students get placement with an average package of Rs 3-4 lac. a year. The highest package goes up to 6-7 lac. a year. Students usually get placements for the post of accountants, managers, bank officers etc. I am currently pursuing CA, so after getting the degree my plan is to continue the same.

I'm from the batch of 2020. The most unlucky batch ever. We have crossed sem 3 but still, I haven't seen my college. Some faculties are really good. I can't take the professor's name but you will see it in sem 1. The professor of Probability Theory from sem 1 and 2 is my favorite. We studied online what is NOT favourable for learning statistics. But I can Say Statistics is one of the Most Beautiful Subjects out there. You will realize the real-life use of statistics very soon and the use is very very vast. We have 7 to 8 professors in the stat department. And in our batch we have 55 students.

After completion of the course, placement takes place in our college where companies like KPMG, Deloitte, Rbl bank hire interns for assistance in the field of accounting and audit and assurance. Nearly 75% of students get placement with an average package of 5 lacs and the highest of 12 lacs. I want to become a Share consultant after getting the degree.
