What was meant to be the final step before graduation has turned uncertain for several engineering students across India. In recent weeks, students from top institutes including the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) and National Institutes of Technology (NIT) have claimed that employment and internship offers extended during campus placements were abruptly withdrawn, leaving many scrambling for alternatives just as the academic year nears its end.The issue reportedly involves global software giant Oracle, which is said to have pulled back multiple full-time and internship offers across campuses such as IIT-Delhi, IIT-Kanpur, IIT-Madras, IIT-Roorkee, NIT-Warangal, and MNNIT-Allahabad. The move comes amid a broader slowdown in tech hiring and follows recent layoffs at the company, adding to growing anxiety around recruitment stability in the sector.Several students recently took to social media and professional networking platforms to share experiences of offer revocations allegedly linked to organisational restructuring and changing hiring needs. One social media user claimed that during campus placements last year, they had secured two full-time offers, one from a multinational company and another from a US-based startup. However, according to the user, both offers were eventually withdrawn.Sharing the emotional toll of the experience, the user alleged that while trying to seek clarity about the situation, they were even scolded by a manager over a phone call. The post quickly gained attention online after he advised fresh graduates not to depend entirely on a single offer or remain overly loyal to employers during placement season. The user argued that students should "do offer shopping" if possible because employment can disappear with “just one email,” adding that there are barely any protections or regulations around sudden offer revocations.You Might Also Like:— neembu_paani31 (@neembu_paani31) Another social media user shared a similar experience, saying their on-campus offer had recently been revoked due to organisational changes. The student stated they were now actively searching for opportunities in software development, backend engineering, and AI-related roles. The individual also highlighted experience in event-driven systems, backend development, Generative AI, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and agentic AI systems while publicly marking themselves as open to work.— AnimeshSha78269 (@AnimeshSha78269) Meanwhile, another case that drew attention online involved Aditya Kumar Barawal from the National Institute of Technology Warangal. The student shared on LinkedIn that a previously accepted pre-placement offer from a Day 0 company had been revoked.Screenshot of the LinkedIn post. According to Barawal, the company cited internal restructuring and headcount-related changes as the reason behind the decision. He later updated his profile with an “Open to Work” status while looking for new opportunities.
