Is it worth joining mining in NIT Raipur, which I got in 3rd round, in terms of placement?

My very good friend was a student placement convener of mining engineering in NIT Raipur, therefore I have a fair idea about how it works.

Although the intake is 77, which is far more compared to any other colleges, the job opportunities are not enough for all the admitted students. Big brands such as Adani, CIL, VEDANTA do come in for the campus recruitment but they are not sufficient for all and also their eligibility criteria and other requirements do not fit all.

• CIL: This is a dream company for all interested in pursuing mining as a career. It is one of those rare companies that offer a handsome salary around 14-15 LPA which keeps on revising at regular intervals. One glitch here is that it has some internal reservations and also they prefer only the top rankers in every batch.
• VEDANTA & ADANI: ADANI is a great company to kick start your career. The eligibility criteria here are also very strict and the salary package is something around average. Nothing too exceptional. VEDANTA is the best option available currently for the students at the institute. 
• Cement Industry & Sector: These are the present manufacturers but are non-consistent and recruit only 2-4 students each year with average pay.

Talk to the seniors in the college to find out more about the actual placement scenario at the institute.
