It's not Sunnyvale, San Jose or Houston that's the dream destination for a graduating engineer in the country.
A recent student perception survey found that over 30 per cent of graduating engineers in the country prefer Bangalore over any other foreign destination, to start off their careers.
The survey covering 1,300 engineering students from 110 campuses across the country says that a foreign location is the second choice of placement with 20 per cent of the students preferring a foreign posting, Delhi is the third most preferred destination followed by a city closer to their home-towns. These findings are from a student perception study conducted by Campus-Connect, a division of CareerNet Consulting, a Bangalore-based recruitment firm.
Campus-Connect is a focussed consulting group working in the industry-academia space, helping corporates develop a strong presence in T-schools in the country.
