IT industry in India has witnessed high growth in the last few years. This rapid growth has created human resource demand supply mismatch. IT industry is continuously on the lookout for fresh and young talents. While the campus recruitment of fresh graduates can provide the required numbers, it has been widely recognized that such recruits lack the skills which are essential for a successful career in the corporate world.
