Case Study: Sree Vidyanikethan Engineering College (SVEC) achieves 30% increase in campus placements with HackerEarth Recruit

How SVEC leveraged Recruit to increase its campus placements by 30%

Sree Vidyanikethan Engineering College (SVEC), a large autonomous engineering college in Andhra Pradesh, faced outdated in-house lab assessments and a lack of real-time reporting that left students underprepared for skill-based campus recruitment. To close this industry-readiness gap, SVEC partnered with HackerEarth and adopted HackerEarth Recruit—using coding challenges, placement series, technical learning materials, newsletters, and performance dashboards.

HackerEarth implemented Recruit’s 30+ language coding tests, a 4-month placement series, learning content, and real-time dashboards so faculty could track progress and target students scoring below 40%. As a result, SVEC saw a 30% increase in overall campus placements year-over-year, broader participation from non‑software streams, and 1,500 students (25%) actively using the platform—demonstrating measurable improvements in student competency and hiring outcomes through HackerEarth.
