India’s elite IIT graduates are confronting a harsh reality as job opportunities diminish. Despite their prestigious education, a skills-job gap is leaving many without employment.
The rapid advancement of technology and evolving industry demands are partly to blame, with companies seeking specific expertise not always covered by traditional curricula.
This situation highlights the urgent need for IITs to adapt their programs to better align with market needs, ensuring their graduates remain competitive. The struggle for employment among these top-tier students underscores broader challenges within India's education and job sectors.
