Challenges for Graduate Students

According to a study, 80% of Indian engineers are unemployed and out of which around 45% can be made employable with training on the right set of skills. Also, 47% of overall & 60% of commerce graduates in India are not suitable for industry roles due to a lack of the right job skills.


Currently, most of the young graduates in India are unemployable as they do not possess the right job skills. This is the issue that needs to be addressed by identifying the skill gaps in graduates and providing them with specific training to boost their employability. As per the National Education Policy, any training that a student receives should directly impact their employability. Enabling the students to check their readiness for a job and get an overview of their areas of improvement would allow them to be able to develop their skills by working on those weak areas.

Why NEST

PIBM’s National Employability Skill Test (N.E.S.T), in collaboration with National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) has been launched by the PIBM Group of Institutes to help graduates either by assessing their skillsets for a job and providing them with lucrative placement opportunities or by identifying their areas of improvements and bridging that gap by developing their skills.

As per the National Education Policy, training given to a student should be aligned for maximum employability. NEST makes sure to identify the need for skill training and provides industry-oriented training to the students to boost their employability.
