"QUEUE OF ALMOST 3000 ENGINEERS GATHERED FOR INTERVIEW"
As per the google analytics, approximately over 1 Million students graduate every year in India. This number increased every year. Recent news showed over 3000 ENGINEERS went to a Walk-in-Interview in Pune. Irony is: there was vacancy of only 10 Candidates. God knows how many got selected, how much time they had to wait over there. Under what circumstances they reached there, what salary package they got (who were selected).
What is the reason behind the HUGE CROWD?
Many students start searching for the job right after their Graduation without any particular skill or I can say without getting Job ready.
Let's take an example of any ABC Organization which is a Manufacturing Industry. They are looking for Engineers, IT Workers or Developers or Backend - Frontend employees. They came up with the vacancies which have 7 in total vacancies opening in their respective company. But the applicants in the Campus Placement is approximately 300 students and the vacancies are 7 (i.e. only 2.33% of total students sat for the campus). Now who is responsible for this mess? This HUGE CROWD?
• College? NO. Why?
Because college needs to place their students so they will conduct drives and the interviews in their college and will surely make those Placement Drives compulsory for students.
• Organizations? NO. Why?
Because Organizations came from far away and they are spending their time, therefore they are looking for best and they cannot bear the risk of choosing 7 students just from 50. Because they are not sure if they can get talent in this number which they are looking for?
Then who is the real culprit here?
The reason behind this mess is LACK OF AWARENESS in students, who are dependents for their career on everything without having proper skill. They have hope for their jobs in College, they have hope for career in their parents, they have hope for their company for long term in their friends.
They are not aware with the fact that Colleges can make them sit in the Campus Placements but preparation of the interview as well as resume is to be done by the students
They don't know that friends can be their families, lifetime buddies but can never stay their colleagues forever. They cannot do job with their friends at same place for long time.
Nowadays students are not aware of Who they are? What they want? They don't even know Why they are going to give the Interview.
