Testimonials

My journey at CMR University has been nothing short of transformative! I am beyond thrilled to share that I have been placed at Accenture, and this milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support and opportunities provided by my university. The Placement Department’s training and the guidance from the management equipped me with the technical expertise and soft skills needed to crack the interview. Winning the elections and serving as the Student Welfare Secretary for two campuses was a game-changer. It wasn’t just a position; it was a platform that taught me leadership, resilience, and the art of solving real-world challenges. These experiences boosted my confidence and shaped me into a well-rounded individual ready to take on the corporate world.
