Also, there has been an upward trend in intergenerational mobility, but the trend has been weaker for workers belonging to Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes categories as compared to workers belonging to general castes.
For unemployment based on education and age groups, the report stated that 42.3 per cent of graduates under 25 are unemployed whereas the figure stands at 21.4 per cent for those who have completed higher secondary education in the same age group. Notably, with lower educational qualifications, the rate of unemployment also decreased.
Speaking to The Indian Express, Rosa Abraham, co-author of the report and among the principal investigators for the India Working Survey, explained, “There are two things that are potentially happening here– one is of course that as a graduate your aspirations and ambition for the kind of work you want to do and the minimum wage you’d demand is much higher. So if the economy is not generating such jobs, they may choose to be unemployed.”
I’m not sure about their graduates and doing next projection may be hasty, wrong and anegtoticaly based only on limited exposure of cases, but … But if they fake studies same as some of indian, suposedly “programmers”, fake work experience in interviews and/or doing work given – the reason behind the large % unemployment of graduates maybe that they can’t do shit. I mean, lacking quality of ethics results a wrong learned behaviour – cheat vs own (admit) reality and learn (bring on board effort) for the future.
I am a software engineer. I work with a few Indian people who are amazing at what they do, but both of them have told me the same: a lot of Indian engineers are fakes.
I don’t think it’s people learning to cheat, but rather the market being so competitive/resourceless that cheating is necessary to get a well paying job
That’s (above) a good example of argumentation, iliustrating and beeing born out of that other cultural understanding of ethics I’ve talked about.
My answer is: show me that you can learn and think, show me good work ethics and the job is yours. Company will even sent you to (and pay for your) courses. You’ll get my own time to explain things, to give you directions to resourses and themes, your coleagues will teach you on a go whilst collaborating and it all will hapen on company’s time.
