A campus placement drive in Tihar Jail

Recently, i came to know about a one of its kind placement drive in Delhi. And to our surprise, the venue for this interview was Tihar Jail. It is the most special campus placement i have ever heard of, a brilliant effort, an innovative approach, which is very rare in India.

Eight companies come up for the interview of around 46 eligible candidates fulfilling the three criteria mentioned below :

1. They had impeccable conduct inside the jail where they utilized their time to gain education and vocational skills.
2. They all expect to be released within a year or so.
3. They were keen to rehabilitate themselves and lead a new life.

Out of these 46 candidates 14 were able to make the best out of this opportunity. They not only ended this drive with their job letters, they also got tickets to a new life of dignity. Others are waiting for rest couple of days when they will be interviewed by other companies.
