GIFT University’s curriculum is very focused and career oriented. We seek to sharpen the skills of our graduates in such a way that they are at home within the workplace. Thus our graduates are better equipped to deal with the ever-changing business scenario and fit seamlessly into professional careers.
The Career Development and Corporate Relationship Department (CRD) is the central point of contact and maintains close links with the corporate sector. The CRD keeps a close watch on industry requirements and seeks to help students find employment in a place that fits their skill set. The CRD is also a facilitator and students can turn to it for internship requests, job leads, career counseling, campus hiring, resume writing, interviewing skills and workshops.
Internships help students get a taste of what they can expect to face in a professional career role. Internships not only make the students feel more comfortable in their future roles, they also inspire confidence and instill them with practical work experience, even before they start their professional career.
But it does not end here, with career counseling and personal development advice, students can further enhance their career prospects and be better prepared for the job interview. Students keep in touch with CRD for job leads. The CRD also regularly organizes seminars and workshops that connect students with the industry. In short, if the corporate market is one big jigsaw, the CRD helps students find their perfect place in the jigsaw.
