In a workshop held at Manipur Technical University in Imphal on the theme ‘Employment through Intrapreneurship’, Saswati Sinha, the India Head of Human Resource, Evalueserve who was present for this workshop as an expert echoed ‘I will not recruit you for skills but for values’ to hundreds of boys and girls of Engineering and MBA streams of the State University.
While Saswati deliberated on a wide perspective of Industry expectations she also highlighted that industries are now looking for a professional attitude rather than a skills set. She highlighted that though freshers come with a technical degree anyways and that they have to further train them up with the requisite organisation-specific technical knowhow but what is most difficult to acquire is the value system, the character, integrity, and a positive mindset which takes years to inculcate.
She informed that what they are looking for is attitude and they believe people who are in tier 2 and 3 colleges, want something to prove do bring in that attitude.The other value the organisations are looking for are diligence, and an innovative mindset, India is all about degrees but we need something more than only degrees.
Earlier the Vice Chancellor Dr. Bhabeswar Tongbram, welcomed the students and the resource persons of the workshop Patricia Buhril, Corporate Trainer of Overseas Point, and Biswadeep Gupta, Managing Trustee of KRC foundation besides Saswati Sinha.
