The hustle and bustle for placement at LPU begins in sixth semester for four year programs and in the fifth semester for three year programs.

One has to enrol for the placement classes if one wants to avail campus recruitment drives. For each discipline there is a definitive allocation of seats. For example CSE students are categorised for product-based companies (120 seats at least) and service-based companies.

The students who opt for placement drives have to pay placement fees.. This includes fees for PEP classes and interview preparation classes like Aptitude, analytical skills, verbal ability, Soft skills enhancement and Interviews, coding and other core subjects classes.

The students then appear for placement interviews in front of companies. Companies start coming in as soon as from the sixth semester and by the end of the seventh semester most of the big companies are through with their interviews.

The companies have specifications such as maintaining CGPA. Some companies want only those students who have 7 CGPA while some want 6 CGPA. There still are some for whom CGPA is not very important at all.
