CAI placement 2013 August-September concluded with a lot of fanfare in the print media. You can see newspapers like Hindu and TOI with the information that ICAI placements going high beating the slow down.

But what is the truth?

Let’s have a look

Students who cleared CA Examination – 8,000

Students who registered for campus – 4,800

Its not that all students not appearing in campus have already got a job, only a handful of students are able to get a job out of campus by themselves. Most of the students not applying for campus are multiple attempt students who think that they will not be able to get a job in the campus due to very low % of placements.

No. of jobs offered – 624 

No. of companies – 58

So no. of jobs offered to registered ratio stands at mere 13%.

Highest salary offered – 24.46 Lakhs

Highest salary was offered by Al Ghanim Industries for an international posting. This is a really low no. for an international posting.

Comparison with previous years…
