Unemployment “What is wrong with India’s Engineers”

Unemployment is a very big issue in India. Countless unemployed people are in India, everyone talks about it but no one provides the solution. Here I am talking about some reasons and their solution for unemployment. 

Countless graduating engineers want jobs either in software engineering or core engineering. Still, only few have suitable skills to be employed in software or product market, and only 7 per cent can handle core engineering tasks.

According to the India’s ministry have around 6000 engineering and technology institutions which are enrolling 2.9 million students. Around 1.5 million engineers are released into the job market every year. But the dismal state of higher education in India ensures that they simply do not have adequate skills to be employed.

60-65 percent of the workforce is just not trainable– A view echoed by Capgemini CEO.

The real basis is a large majority are engaged in jobs that are likely to be non-existent in the future. The old traditional physical jobs are likely to be replaced by automation and cloud computing that considerably reduces the size of the employees.

WHO IS TO BE BLAMED?

I assume it’s moment for us to face the reality. 90% of Engineering and MBA graduates that come out of our education organization lack fundamental communication and interpersonal skills. Which in-turn makes then entirely unemployable. The contributing factor being the quality of education provided in majority of these engineering colleges. The need for CHANGE is here. This is an issue which needs immediate attention.

Engineering organizations are generating so many graduates, but corporate’s often complained that they are not getting the skills and talents which are required for the entry level jobs.

Corporate today have to spend enormous amount of money and time in training the fresher graduates after employing them, not only on the technical front but also on something as basic as communication.

Following factors which contribute in making engineers — Unemployable:

Quality of the education: Outdated learning curriculum and old teaching techniques.

Theory v/s Practice: Our educational system focuses only on theoretical knowledge in spite of it should be more practical.

Exams: Indian education measures the learning on the basis of one final exam; instead it should start concentrating over assignments. Due to this stone-age methodology of evaluating knowledge, the students’ lay emphasis on only the exams and not on learning the subject.

Research: There is not much scope of research with our institutions.

Lack of exposure: Most institutes don’t provide internship opportunities. They should understand that an internship provides exposure to students, about the kind of work done in companies.

Professors: Majority of the professors don’t know how to teach, they are neither open-minded nor updated with the latest advancements. Moreover, in majority of our engineering colleges the lectures happen in local languages despite the curriculum being in English. I have personally witnessed the same. When the professors itself lack the basic communication and exposure required, how does one expect the students to be skilled?

More Supply — less demand: As more and more graduate fresher enter the job market, the supply and demand cycle is getting effected.

In addition to this, some drastic changes are required in our educational system. The government should work with priority on this matter, as it affects a lot of people’s life and indirectly affect the future of INDIA.

This is India; these things won’t change for decades so you guys have to work on it yourself. Stop waiting it be spoon fed and Start behaving like engineers.

To all the unemployed fresher out there, i know how it feels to be unwanted but this is what will drive you to better opportunities.

Focus your time and energy only on learning because there is lot of opportunities waiting for the right candidate.

This means somebody who has upgraded their skills have a secured future and an edge over their peers. Business Analysis is already a buzz word. It is high time you consider building new abilities.

 

Self Motivation Scheme for Passing Out Students

Motivation is to develop an inclination towards some specific behavior; it acts as a motive which prompts the person to act in a certain way. To motivate others with one’s speaking skills is very easy and common in human behavior. But when it comes to self motivation it is not an easy job. It is the feeling which does not have self instinct; it needs some extra efforts from outer resources. Self motivation can be practiced by following certain skills specially passing out students as they are in their decisive years of life.

Self Motivation for students

Factors for Self-Motivation

Self confidence: 

Self - Confidence for students

For any reason in life you need to believe yourself: I can do is considered as first step of success. Lack of confidence can be depicted from one’s body language; if you don’t believe in yourself, how you can expect others to believe on you. By believing in yourself you can enjoy your success and even you can learn from your failures. The momentum created by self-confidence is hard to beat.

Self Realization: 

Self - realization 

To understand your caliber examines your strengths to find out what you can do. You can determine your strength by analyzing what other people says about your capabilities. Along with it you can easily analyze your past success and failures. Remember your past experience is your base strength for future success.

Positive Thinking: 

Always Be Positive  

Positive thinking is closely related to self-confidence as a factor in self-motivation. It's important to look at things positively, especially when things aren't going as planned and you're ready to give up. This is particularly the case if you need to work hard to achieve success, or if you need to persuade others to support you in order to succeed. Your ideas and thoughts can have a major influence on your success or failure, so make sure that your thoughts are "on your side."If your thoughts are positive you can expect positive results and your choices will be more positive.

Attitude towards Life: 

Your attitude towards life plays an important role in motivating your thoughts towards present as well as your future. If your attitude towards life is positive you will never give up on unwanted situations of life. Your positive attitude will play as internal force which will help you to fight for your challenges and ultimately you will win.

Goal setting skill: 

SET Goals

We can practice our self-motivation by practicing goal-setting skills. We should set goals accordingly and work hard to achieve them. Find out ways to improve your self-motivation and regularly reassess your motivation levels. If you actively keep your internal motivation high, you are very close to your hopes, dreams, and visions of the future. You should always set achievable goals for yourself, work hard to achieve them, and enjoy that achievement.

Motivating Environment: Self motivating skill arises through a healthy environment in our surrounding. This environment will help you to remain positive towards your goal and will aspire you fulfill your goal. These are external factors which helps you get motivated from outside. You can rely on these environmental or outside elements as supporting factors to motivate you.

By working on all these factors together, you will improve your self motivation. As you get more comfortable and confident with your self-motivation you will face your challenges in a positive way followed by positive results.
