Counting experience in number of years instead of actual and effective outputs and outcomes achieved is still the basic (flawed) criterion for all government jobs. #CareerCentre, #MinistryofLabourandEmployment, #NationalCareerService, #NSC, #NationalCareerServiceProject, #MyGov

in India the education quality is very poor. So first we need to improve the quality of our teachers , education technology, practical knowledge and feature planning of students.

I challenge you Mr Modi even if I return after 20 years to India from abroad, I'll be finding the same traffic nuisance, garbage everywhere, lack of women respect, corruption, violation of traffic, pathetic roads, drainages, no adequate social security for poors, dust, pollution, animals on street & filthy state of things in India. Visit Hero Honda Chowk, Gurgaon once & you will see what I have stated above. I feel disgusted to be an Indian. You only know how to give lectures that's it.

It will be good for one single site in which adding CV which can help every one to get the job. Also in this site there should be training information as well which can tell people to understand the market trend. So accordingly people can plan to attend the training.

I feel that half my search of a quality life is killed, the moment I am born in India. I feel disgusted to see you not fulfilling any promise you made to the people of India. Your Govt. launches useless schemes like " Swacch Bharat Abhiyan" where after months of launching, one cannot find a single dustbin/toilets in any cities leaving metropolitians. Both you & your Govt., have done nothing sensational to win public trust on you & your Governance.

Many students coming out of college don't have jobs or proper directions. Career centers should be opened in each district so that proper guidance and roadmap can be shown to students.

Stop the BPO culture in India if you are interested in utilising youth's talent. I stay in Gurgaon & have seen how young students get tempted for an easy job in BPO & spoil their health working at night with heavy exposure to calls under pressure. At an age when the studies, should be their first priority, they neglect their studies for earning some quick money. Furthermore, Mr Modi, please impose a heavy taxes on Tobacco & Alcohol products in india if you want to save youths. prateek jain

Career centres should be defined with new functionalities 1) They should act as channels to guide the youth to sectors with potential and space, rather than traditional broker job of liking employee and employer 2) Research into deterrents for youth to become entrepreneurs and provide aid,advise and assistance to promote their ideas into economic activity. 3) Act as bridge between ideas, aspiration to reality, economic activity, entreprenuership.

One basic problem faced when starting vocational education is knowing the demand of skills in the market. This problem has been solved pretty well by the US with this government website: http://www.bls.gov/bls/proghome.htm I think India can have something similar to inform various entities like educational institutions, planners, Individuals to make better judgments about choosing most effective vocational skills. #CareerCentre, #MinistryofLabourandEmployment, #NationalCareerService, #NSC,
