Placement Statistics
FAQs
What is a Placement Eligibility test?
One should clear the pre-placement process which includes Aptitude tests, Placement tests, and Technical and HR Practice Tests Interviews. Clearing these tests is mandatory for anyone to get into placements.
Can I get 100% guaranteed placements by joining VLSI Course Online?
Our Principle- “We assist until we place”. Cranes Varsity shoulders the responsibility of placing its students. So anyone who is joining the course at Cranes Varsity is provided with assured placements.
Do I have to pay extra for course material & placements?
No. Once a student is enrolled in the program, he will get access to our Student Portal which will have study material and interview questions. Cranes Varsity has ATPC – Admission, Training, Placement, and Certificate – Approach. There are no additional charges involved.
If any student wants to have a hard copy of course material then they may have to bear a nominal charge which is not a part of the regular course fee.
