The document discusses using a cause-effect diagram to analyze the root causes of poor student placement. It presents a cause-effect diagram with main causes like quality of education, corporate culture, self, and environment. Specific sub-causes are identified under each main cause like lack of quality faculty, theoretical education, poor college reputation, and lack of soft skills. Recommended solutions are provided to overcome the root causes by improving education quality, increasing job opportunities, attracting major recruiters, developing job aspirants, and aligning college and corporate culture. The team learned how cause-effect diagrams can identify relationships between problems and causes to take corrective actions.
