Respected Sir/Madam,
I am studying international business at Gotland University in Sweden.
I am doing a thesis on the topic -- Importance of soft skills training and education for current and future software engineers of India. The focus is on problems and solutions based on the views of experts.
In a recent 2005 McKinsey survey, Indian executives listed the low availability of talent as the single largest constraint for the future growth of their software companies in India. Respondents claimed that 80.7% of US engineers would be employable, compared with only 10% of Chinese engineers and 25% of Indian engineers. Major concerns about employing Indian engineers focused on language proficiency, quality of technical education, cultural issues, and a lack of accessibility.
I would appreciate your views on the quality of higher education, talent shortage, various problems in the IT industry concerning the quality of manpower, solutions, and any other relevant information.
Please share your views, information, articles on this topic at prateekcapoor@yahoo.com.
Please also fill out the questionnaire in the attached file, which consists of two parts - Part A and Part B. It would be a great help if you could fill out the entire questionnaire. However, if you are very busy, please at least fill out Part B and send it back promptly.
Thanks
Regards
Prateek
