Survey in India
India

is one of the largest education systems in the world. We produce 31 lakh graduates every year - twice as much as US and 3 times more than UK. Yet, a recent survey found that more than 60% of total Indian graduates are without jobs. There are numerous job opportunities available in India, yet there is a huge deficit of employable talent in India. The need gap is the dearth of Employability skills among students.

They do not have soft skills like good communication, presentability, analytical ability etc" says Anand Saraf, managing director of Iqura Technologies, Bangalore I spend more time on human resources and training fresh hires than actually doing work," says L&T's Chairman A.M. Naik The challenge before the Industry does not lie in the supply of talent, but rather that of employability" says Mr Azim Premji, Chairman - Wipro Industries Ltd

Education
Colleges Employers Students

System

Solution
The following are few suggestions: 1. An Employability Strategy Fund should be created; 2. The employability skills in all university curriculum are to be explicitly identified; 3. The teaching and assessment of employability skills are to be enhanced; 4. Provide funding for universities to systematically review their work on developing employability skills.

Conclusion
To

sum, both educational institutions and industry should work together for enhancing employability skills of students as it is rightly said that you need to clap with both hands to get the results.
