FAQ
What the Qualified candidates should do?

Q:1 How the placement is made?

Ans: Placement of a candidate is made according to the following steps:  

I.     At first, the qualified candidates need to establish contacts with the ICT companies or Government bodies that require ICT services. ICT companies or Government bodies may also contact the candidates. However, candidates are advised to make the first move to contact the organisations, preferably in person. As a qualified candidate under the National ICT Internship programme (Batch-8), approach the company to work with them as an Intern for 6 (six) months.

II.    When a ICT company or a Government body agrees to take a qualified candidate as Intern, an Intern requisition form (available at BCC website) has to be filled up and duly signed by an authorised person of the company/organisation.

III.  Submit the Intern Requisition Form to BCC.

IV. BCC processes the Intern Requisition Form for placement of the Interns. The processing may include assessment of the company and physical inspection of the company status.

V.    Finally, BCC provides the intern candidate with a Placement Letter. The company/organisation taking the intern also receives a copy of the placement letter.
