An employee working in the IT sector, Anuj Pathak, while talking with The Logical Indian, said, "Moreover, we have reached a time where demand for skills is transforming rapidly. Being a fresher, I equipped myself with skills in Languages (Python, C) as I was well aware that the IT industries are looking for people who have this skill set. Knowing the in-demand skills beforehand can help people to be career-ready."
The report includes several other skill sets for different jobs and industries, including Media and Communications, Manufacturing, and Healthcare, that can benefit an employee in understanding the transformation of in-demand skills in India.
