We need to have a frank conversation about what these skills gaps are. More important, we must think about practical solutions in the Indian context so that new hires can hit the ground running and find fulfillment in their careers, and employers can assure themselves of a quality resource.

Learning outcomes:

  • How to become more employable in the industry
  • What essential soft skills are required for career success
  • What competencies required, and what potential career paths exist
