How to Hire from IIT Delhi

Companies looking to recruit from IIT Delhi have two primary pathways:

1. Through the Official Placement Cell

IIT Delhi's placement cell manages the formal campus recruitment process. Companies need to register in advance (typically by August-September), meet minimum CTC requirements, and follow the institute's placement policies. The process is well-structured but requires significant lead time and administrative coordination.

Visit the official placement cell website for registration details and recruitment guidelines.

2. Through Novare Talent

We provide curated access to verified IIT Delhi students and alumni, with 3-5 matched candidates delivered within 48 hours.
