I am a bit confused. ICAI charges between 70k to 5lacs from Companies visiting campus from placement. I enquired my friends from my friends from various engineering and management schools (tier-1) if their college does too,but i never got positive answer. So I wanted to ask is,do you know of any colleges which charge fees from corporates. Do you think this may be the reason of low participation of companies in ICAI campus placement program?

as far as i know.....every Bschool in the top category charge fees from companies.. but still that comes cheap for companies, since they have to pay the consultants as well, when they hire off campus. Even in case of employee referal, the concerned employee gets a commission....So practically they hire free only when they come across a direct profile, which is in rarity , considering the time they have to invest. moreover the initial screening is done by the consultants, in our case ICAI. yes that is True. The first call letters for interview , after filling up the online form, is done by ICAI, and not by companies.

But your point stands true in some other respect. Campusing of Every top B-school rests on the capability of the campusing director or co-ordinator. Its his source, network, USP( whatever u call it), that makes the campusing a success. I have seen in few cases( in B-schools), where, campusing went aweful, when the concerned campusing director resigned.

Yes exactly. I know that They charge fees 100 times more than ICAI and ICAI also have to arrange for the place of interaction between candidates and companies,but still with dismal figures every campus,shouldnt it be somewhat reduced?
