Talent Swallowing

With Shortage of talent and a booming It/ITES sector there is a major problem of Talent Swallowing leaving the R&D companies grasping at Thin Air for precious talents.

I believe in India we are facing a dynamic issue of anyone for any role and not the right person for the right role. This is happening because of

(i) Lack of time
(ii) Unclear view about roles
(iii) The desperation for a job

All these factors make a major problem and the accusations from most of the Brick & Mortar companies are that they do not have people for R&D work. We want to enjoy the best vehicles with the best technology but we do not have the adequate labour force to create that possibility which shows us a daunting challenge of increasing our systems o equip more people to graduate focusing on niche domains and places like R&D need to be given special impetus.

Till then its a war for talent and unfortunately like the jungle the big hunter leaves very little for the smaller ones.
