RE: Re: Re: RE: [MTC Global] A million engineers in India struggling to get placed in an extremely challenging market

I read a news item today where HDFC has said that there attrition rate is 20%, What does it speak of. Nobody would leave a job for being unemployed.

Goel saab is absolutely correct that real problem is not finding employment but their employability. Several surveys indicated that only 25% of either engineering and Management graduates are employable.  While nothing much could be done on their attitude (which determines their inquisitiveness to learn etc) institutions in general and teachers in particular should make the students practice the mantra of read, reflect and relate so that they will be in a position to give a better account of themselves. 

I was only Chipping for intensified industry institute interaction because if students are aware of nitty gritty of corporate jungle especially the nuances atleast to some extent they will be able to market themselves. 

The major problem, which I could decipher from Goel saab's anguish, is that  majority of our students suffer from either of two dreadful deceases (deadlier than HIV) namely

-I know everything

-I don't wish to know anything. 

Somehow we need to insulate (know it's pretty difficult) our students from being affected by either of these two. 

Let's continue with our holistic mission of educating, empowering and elevating of fraternity sothat  they do inturn do the same to their students.

Inquisitiveness and  willingness to work hard are two basic needs for any kind of employment with growth perspective and they are missing across the board. On top of that basic writing reading and articulating skills for an effective communication are missing in most of the two and three tier cities. I have not come across any young man who is unemployed with above attitudinal and skills aspect besides the domain knowledge.

Improving the employability skills is one of the major challenges before all of us-be it the policy makers , academicians. There is no point in talking about demographic dividend when many of the youngsters can't be deployed to create, communicate and deliver value (the emphasis on deployability and no more employability).

Had we possessed a system of having an estimated requirements of human resources-skill wise-accordingly plans could be undertaken to produce accordingly. Since such an initiative (holistic ) on an all india level is no where to be seen the only alternative is to increase the industry institute interaction. When that happens students would be in a better position to rise up to the expectations of the industry. 

Institutes could think of granting 15 days sabbatical for the faculty to go to the industry and get first hand information on the nitty gritty of corporate jungle. But for this to happen industry too should come forward.
