Employability skills can be defined as the convenient skills needed by an individual to make them employable. As per the India Skill Report 2019, employability has been increased from 37% to 47.38% in last 5 years. Along with good technical understanding and subject knowledge an employer wants various types of skill from his employees i.e. communication and interpersonal skills, problem solving skills, using your initiative and being self-motivated, working under pressure, organizational skills, team working, ability to learn and adapt. Thus we can say that employability fully depends on knowledge, skill and attitudes, how you use those assets and how you present them to employers.
Skill is considered as most important initiatives of the Government of India. It helps to build a future needy skill workforce. It aims to train over forty crore people with different skills by 2022.
