Hi student,

It is said to have gotten a placement if you get selected for a job in a company ( like TCS, Adobe, etc.) If you have completed your diploma, then you have to appear for examination/ interview with a company or organisation to get a job. When you get a job, then only it is said that you are placed. Sometimes companies visit colleges to select students for a job. If there are companies visiting your college, then you can sit for the interview and if you are selected, then you get a placement. If no companies are visiting your college then you have to yourself apply to various different companies so that you can give interviews and get a job if selected.

Hope it helps. Let us know if further help is needed.

Good luck.
