What do you think about this?

I'm from the same college.
6 yoe now.
My department must've had some 50% placement back then.
One of my mate is still looking for a job and applying for all the govt competitive exams. IIT doesn't guarantee a rosy picture 🙂

Jobless growth …

22 is a big number

Probably not btech and from some other courses

This is true .everyday IIT students blabber like anything near the tea shop usually we met

There are many who go for higher education, UPSC preparation, CDS, etc. Does this 22% include them ?

Those 22% might be

1. Started preparing for govt exams early but couldn’t get the job
2. Never got placed so followed the step 1
3. Most folks from Civil, Mechanical, Electrical etc branches found difficult to get the job in IT sector

Its because everyone wants a software job. Its supply-demand problem
