If you want to get a job in an IT company and your college has organised a placement drive, then you should consider keeping a CGPA between 7.5 and 8. Though the required CGPA varies from one company to another. Keeping a decent percentage at school and college is important. However, it is not the only thing interviewers consider when choosing potential candidates for their company. It is also important for you to prepare questions for the placement drive. You will be asked questions related to your personal life, educational background, career goals and other things. Make sure you answer them well and with confidence. Of course, sitting for job interviews can be challenging but that nervousness shouldn’t show up on your face.
