What Is a Campus Placement Drive and How Does It Work?

Who is eligible for a placement drive?

Each drive sets its own eligibility, commonly a minimum CGPA or percentage, specific branches and a graduation year. The placement cell shares the list of eligible students.

What are the usual selection rounds?

Typical rounds include an online or written aptitude test, a technical test or group discussion, a technical interview and an HR interview. Not every employer uses every round.
