The jury is out for the year 2013, on the quality of the Indian
education system. The India employability report by Aspiring
Minds, a research rm, has bought out the obvious fact that the
quality of the education system in India is, well, abysmal.
But it is the numbers that really dents the point home. Chennai,
home to Anna University, one of the largest universities in India
with about 400 colleges aliated to it, has an employability rate
of an awful 1%. Even the the state with the highest employability
percentage, Delhi, is only at 13%. Bangalore, the so called silicon
valley of India is at a staggering 3.2%.
Clearly, something is horribly wrong with our technology
education system. We at HackerEarth decided to pen down
these problems and heres a list of things could be wrong

make people attain dierent goals to achieve it. Put out industry
relevant problems and a job opportunity for everyone who can
solve the problem within constraints.
Not only is this industry relevant, it also lays emphasis on the
importance of learning the basics, as the stronger your
foundations, the quicker and better you can solve these
programs. You cant mug up content for these tests; you need to
know your skill very well. And the kind of problems that you get
to solve is a good measure of what the industry wants.
The problem is fairly easy to solve for engineering and many like
us are solving it at scale. Should you be disheartened with the
India Employability Survey Yes. But does that mean there is no
hope? No. Denitely not.
