India service careers - former call centre agentsAl James
This article presents findings from a labour mobility survey of 250 former call centre agents in India’s National Capital Region (September 2008) exploring individuals’ employment before, during and immediately after leaving India’s high-profile call centre ‘industry’. These data are combined with forty-two in-depth interviews conducted in India’s NCR (July 2006 to August
2008) with call centre agents, managers, ex-call centre agents, labour organizers and economic development officials, as well as representatives from different labour market intermediaries. The study gives a cautiously optimistic account about the call centre work and employment opportunities on offer in India’s ‘IT Enabled Services – Business Processing Outsourcing’
(or ITES-BPO) industry, and their implications for young urban middle class graduates based on: (i) the movement of around one fifth of the ex-call centre agent sample into further study, facilitated by relatively high call centre salaries; (ii) the movement of ex-call centre agents into higher paying job
roles in a wide range of sectors including banking, IT, insurance, marketing, real estate and telecommunications; and (iii) the development of transferable skills in Indian call centres that are recognized by ex-call centre agents and their subsequent employers as conferring a labour market advantage in other
sectors of India’s new service economy relative to colleagues without prior call centre work experience.

The Employability Gap: Five Ways to Improve Employability Outcomes in Higher EdMichael Bettersworth
Colleges are rewarded for enrollment numbers and there is increasing attention on graduation rates, yet very little if any attention is paid to student placement and earnings. Considering the massive investment required for higher education, aren't these valuable measures as well? In this session, Michael Bettersworth makes the case why degrees increasingly matter less, competencies are the real currency, and student success is about much more than enrollment numbers or graduation rates. It's also about getting a job.
Michael Bettersworth is the associate vice chancellor for technology advancement at the Texas State Technical College System. Shortly after joining TSTC in 2002, Michael founded TSTC Forecasting to identify and analyze new technical competencies needed by employers. The core purpose of this work is to improve student employability through curriculum alignment with market demand. TSTC Forecasting has published over 28 studies on emerging technologies and occupations leading to new college curriculum in nanotechnology, biotechnology, energy, video games, manufacturing, healthcare among other topics. New studies are currently underway in big data, unmanned aerial systems, and social media. Michael's current work focuses on the development of a new higher education funding model based on exiter earnings, the use of real-time labor market data for curriculum alignment, college program evaluations using placement and earnings data, and curriculum development through a common skills language in partnership with the Texas Workforce Commission. Michael is an unconventional thinker, an informed speaker, and a staunch advocate for the important role of education in our nation's shared prosperity.

forces for the overall growth of Indian IT industry. The industry has much more potential in comparison to

Indian human-resource and out of these, only 25% of IT graduates are considered employable by fast growing

- An Employability Report on IT & ITES Industry
Solutions to Reduce the Employability Gap in Indian IT Industry:
Effective Collaboration between Industry & Academic Institutions:
The way to reduce employability gap in IT sector in India should be attributed to public private partnership.
Companies should impart practical training to fill the void in the supply and demand gap. Colleges and
education institutions should work to improve the soft skills and personality development of the students.
Quality faculty and sound infrastructure are also required to meet the expectations of IT companies in India. It
is required that industries should work with academicians with effective collaboration for meaningful research
and development. Only overall development other than IT skills can meet the vast potential of IT sector in
India.
Employability Assessment to Identify the Employability Skills & Quotient:
Employability assessment and tests could help companies to identify employee’s right skill set that is required
to perform a specific job. In last few years companies are gradually conducting the employability tests and find
these tests and assessments very useful to get the right candidate for the job. Through these tests and
assessments candidates can know more about their employability quotient and to plan his or her career.
Further to this, companies can ensure that the hired candidate possess the required skills and competencies.
Employability Training:
Employability Training is the methodology to fulfill the gaps and train himself to become “EMPLOYABLE”. Such
Trainings are helpful for all but are MORE helpful for Fresh Graduates who are not aware of the Industry
Trends and technologies required to boost their employability.
