Frequently asked questions for Placements
- Our effective training methods ensure that students gain all the necessary knowledge and skills during the training period. We offer Theory, Practical, Mock interviews and Personality Development (PD) classes in the job guarantee courses from the day ONE. By the time students complete their training, they are ready to crack interviews in most of the companies. This is the reason why 80% of our students get placed in the first three interview attempts only.
- There are very few students who need more than three interview attempts to get placed. This normally occurs with those students who don’t take their training sessions regularly and seriously. We have noticed these students often skip classes, never come to the lab practices, or attend their PD classes. They join such courses for fun and hence lack sincerity.
- Although there is no such limit on the number of interview opportunities you are offered before getting placed, but if you keep on getting rejected in different companies, then you might face a situation where there are very less or no companies left to apply.
- To avoid the situation of rejection, we conduct mock interviews at our level before you face any interview. If you still fail in 5 interviews continuously, then we conduct another round of screening with one of our Senior Trainers. They assess your skills, advise you to fill the gaps and also give you few additional classes. After several revision sessions and a gap of one month, we again start the placement process for the same student.
- 50% of our students get placed even before the completion of the CCIE training. Our Placement Team gets in touch with the students while they are perusing CCIE training and ask for their preferences of when they want to get placed. Once they get their feedback thereon the Placement Team schedules the process of placing those students.
- Students who wish to complete their training first and then want to get placed will be offered job opportunities immediately after their training is finished.
You can always ask Placement Department not to process your placement before the completion of training. Make sure that you inform placement team once your training is complete and ask them to align interview opportunities for you.
You will continuously keep getting guidance on this from your trainers and placement department. Still, if you have any doubt then you can always reach to Mr. Vikas Kumar via email. His email id is vikas.kumar@networkbulls.com. He will revert you with the best solution.
