India Skills Report: Find Top 10 Preferred States For Job Hunters

The much-awaited India Skills Report 2019-20 is out. According to the report prepared by CII in association with UNDP, AICTE and Association of Indian Universities, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Delhi have witnessed the maximum hiring activity in 2019. In 2018, it was Andhra Pradesh, Delhi and Gujarat.

However, Odisha, which has made a determined effort to ramp up its skilling initiative and is hard-selling the state as an emerging destination for students scouting for job opportunities, finds zero mention in the report.

Neighbouring Andhra Pradesh has marched way ahead of Odisha, not only for the talent pool but also as the most preferred state to work.

Here are the takeaways from the report:

Cities with the highest employability: (Availability of talent pool) 
Bengaluru
Chennai
Guntur
Lucknow
Mumbai
New Delhi
Nashik
Pune
Vishakapatnam

2.West Bengal
3.Delhi
4.Rajasthan
5.Uttar Pradesh
6.Haryana
7.Karnataka
8.Telengana
9.Maharashtra
10.Tamil Nadu

According to the report, not only these states feature in the top 10 list in terms of domain expertise, but also in various non-technical skills which were assessed using psychometric tests.

“Needless to say, the kind of efforts that the governments of these states are putting in to make students job ready is paying off,” the report said.

Andhra Pradesh
Delhi
Haryana
Karnataka
Maharashtra
Rajasthan
Telengana
