How the exam will ask it
പ്രിലിംസ്
- Statement: A placement cell is a college body that links students with employers for campus recruitment.
- Statement: Bangalore University is a state public university in Karnataka whose affiliated colleges follow its common policies.
- Statement: Employability, as distinct from employment, refers to the skills that make a graduate job-ready.
മെയിൻസ്
GS-II (education) and GS-III (employment, skills). Many graduates lack job-ready skills, so the university is mandating placement cells in all affiliated colleges to link students with recruiters. The implication is wider access to campus hiring for students of smaller colleges; the way forward is industry partnerships, skill training, trained placement officers and outcome tracking.
