They do hire from other colleges but in big tech there is little obsession of Tier1 institutes. A false assumption is that IIT/NID peeps are better.
Them Being from similar/same background, there often is an overlap of thinking and ideas, NID peeps tend to be more into the Social Impact aspect which can help these companies balance both Product/Business focused and Social or People focused diversity.
The obsession sometimes is so bad that they have hired from Lower or Newer NIDs/IITs and blocking out some top non IIT design schools.
