Career center must be developed for human resource tapping center.Human is the greatest asset for a nation. But we indians ignored it,supplies great human powers to other countries.Hence immigration encouraged.To identify peoples embedded skill, right aptitude test being conducted.Each persons have their own strength and weakness.To identify all the skills (physical and intellectual) in the person is the first step towards job orientation.With in six month the center must provide a job to them.

#roadwaytosuccess The main reason why we end up with wrong jobs or career is the lack of proper guidance at deciding points of our life. In India SSC and HSC are two such crucial stages of our career one wrong step an you end up wasting your precious years. We need to bring #careerguidance mandatory in our curriculum. But that shouldn't be a formality ,Students should be asked to do research on different career options and then discussions should be done on that. #youth #change

Just Like B-schools design their course as per the requirement of Industry the govt. should tie-up with Industry & develop course as per the requirement of industry also Sign MOU with the industry to employ the people from the Career Centers where the people have quality Skill-Sets . Career Centers should be specific in nature for eg. Center for Tourism Industry , for Auto Industry , for Steel Industry etc .

There is dire need to motivate rural youth towards farming and encourage them for farm sector activities. So career centers must be opened at Block/ Taluka area and it should provide technological assistance, agri-business, skill development in farm sector and act as job generator in Agriculture Sector. After-all total population may reach 1340 million in 2021 and except Farming sector, none other sector gives you food to survive. Think about it!!!!!!.
