Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh – A remarkable 94.3% of final-year students from government and aided polytechnics in Andhra Pradesh have secured jobs through campus placements, according to G. Ganesh Kumar, Director of the Department of Technical Education. This achievement covers 8,630 out of 9,145 students from 82 institutions, with placement drives held between January and April 2025. Kumar anticipates a 100% placement rate by the end of April as some companies are still finalizing results and offer letters.
Major recruiters included prominent names in technology, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals such as Texas Instruments, Wipro, Maruti Suzuki, and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories. The highest salary package offered reached ₹9.2 LPA (Lakhs per annum), while the lowest was ₹1.8 LPA, with an average of ₹2.2 LPA. The Department celebrated “Job Achievers’ Day” in March 2025 to recognize student success.
