Our promise

A placement-readiness programme that does not start in the final semester — it begins on the day the student walks in.

Nation-building

Closing the projected 85M+ skilled-professional gap by 2030 starts with treating placement as a four-year practice, not a four-month panic.

What we offer

The programme.

01

Entry-cohort profiling

First-year RAPD™ + TriFit™ baseline for every student — a foundation every department can build on.

02

Mentor-led specialisation choice

Structured electives, minors and specialisations chosen with a mentor — not by accident or by hostel-mate.

03

Placement-readiness intensive

A pre-final-year intensive — interview behaviour, founder-mindset and the Founder's Identity Statement.

04

Recruiter-grade reports

Anonymised cohort reports your placement cell can put in front of recruiters.

05

Faculty enablement

Train-the-trainer for placement and mentoring faculty — the credential stays inside the institution.

06

Founders' track

An optional founders' track for the 15–20% who plan to start a venture instead of taking a job.

The full picture

Programmes on the left. Outcomes on the right.

Switch between what you receive and what changes — measured in the first year and compounded across cohorts.

How it works

From kickoff to impact report.

  1. Programme design

    M0

    Scope, departments, faculty leads and calendar — co-designed against your placement cycle.

  2. Baseline + faculty enablement

    M1

    First-year RAPD baseline. Faculty / placement-cell certification (L1).

  3. Mentor-led delivery

    M2–M8

    Cohort sessions on campus or online. Quarterly Dheya supervision.

  4. Pre-placement intensive

    M9–M10

    Interview behaviour, group-discussion practice, founder simulations.

  5. Annual cohort report

    M12

    Cohort report, recruiter-pack and CLIQI endline.

The pay-off

Short-term and long-term.

In the first 12 months

  • Specialisation choices with conviction

    Right-fit electives and minors in year two — fewer mid-degree pivots.

  • Stronger interview behaviour

    Measurable lift in interview-readiness in the pre-placement intensive.

  • Recruiter-pack ready

    A defensible, recruiter-grade cohort report your placement cell can lead with.

Over multiple cohorts

  • Placement % that holds

    Direction-led placement uplift sustained over multiple cycles — not a one-batch spike.

  • An alumni base who name your campus

    Graduates who credit the campus with the direction, not just the degree.

  • A founders pipeline

    A multi-year cohort of founder-track alumni in the Dheya Aspiring Founders Network.
