Your observations are absolutely correct...Hi Shyam<br /><br />Your observations are absolutely correct. Having been in the IT industry for the past 30+ years(not retired yet) and 2 years back took up training fresher induction batches in corporates. <br /><br />I have had the opportunity to interact and interview candidates from rural candidates. Like you said they are strong in technical knowledge, but wanting in good communication, especially in English. <br /><br />Our company has initiated a programme named "Arkseed" where we concentrate on rural colleges for making final year candidates employable. We train them on soft-skills (effective communication, public speaking, email/ phone etiquettes, etc).<br /><br />I feel that if companies like us concentrate on colleges in rural areas the boys and girls can be made employable even by McKinsey, Boston, and others.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01933351445373401076noreply@blogger.com
