Fate of Campus Recruitment in Colleges
The campus recruitment is a great opportunity which every student wants at the end of the course. Now it has been observed that at the end of the course, the elite institutions like Bengal Engineering and Science University and Jadavpur University in West Bengal, India are facing a new problem. The students are neglecting their studies after the third year in their four year course. The only reason that has been found is the campus recruitment. It is being done at the end of the third year.
The students work hard to score 90% marks in the exam till the third year. At the end of the third year, the students become careless about their studies when they find that they have been recruited by a company. They do their studies carelessly, attend less number of classes and even the brilliant students can hardly score 50% marks in their exams.
Another problem has also emerged as a reaction of this. The students want to score their marks by asking the professors to allow them to cheat by threatening them. It is the decline of the goals of the so-called career oriented students who think that the purpose of a course is to get a job not to increase their knowledge.
Some institutions have set their campus recruitment at the end of the fourth year. They have the foresight that the students will neglect their studies. So the students also do not neglect their studies and the institutions face no problem. This is the case of IIT (Indian Institute of Technology). Their campus recruitment is held at the end of fourth year. So students have to study throughout the year to get the campus recruitment.
In campus recruitment, the reward is hanging just like a carrot before a student. The student is eager to study as he knows that there is an end. Many institutions of multimedia and animation education are also using the bait of job at the end of work and are making huge money in the course fees. The parents also feel that their son to get employed they need to spend money. So they have to fork out exorbitant sums to meet their institutions demand.
