UDAIPUR JOB FESTIVAL: EMPLOYMENT CONDITIONS IN RAJASTHAN – CASE STUDY

Are you in Udaipur? Are you a fresher in Udaipur or a professional planning to make his BIG jump?
Although Rajasthan has second-lowest unemployment rate { first being Gujarat} and leads in the lowest unemployment rate in rural areas at just 4 among a thousand. But the real problem lies here, the jobs pay you very feebly. Yes, lack of big companies and medium scale enterprises forces the youth to work in small scale industries, handicrafts, local shops, and small businesses. Wikipedia lists only four MNCs in favor of Rajasthan namely Larson & Toubro Ltd, Grasim Industries Ltd, Parle Biscuits Ltd, and NBC Bearings. The land of kings just fails to offer good quality white-collar jobs to its residents.
The Rajasthan govt has taken certain steps to ensure that the youth don’t drown in the sea of unemployment, for eg recently an unemployment allowance scheme has been aired where the unemployed will get Rs 500 per month by the govt. This scheme looks like a joke because what is the value of Rs 500 in the present generation. Another scheme or rather a start-up scheme has been launched to make it easy for the people to generate jobs in Rajasthan.
Rajasthan is not short of talented young blood, not at all when there are educational hubs like KOTA and premier institutes like NIT Jaipur and IIM Udaipur.
Though there are some startups that have surfaced on the land of kings for eg our very own Zigsaw in Udaipur, here the problem is that they hire professionals from other states, the main reason is the lack of trust in local youngsters. Something needs to be done to make the start-ups, existing firms, and the upcoming companies aware of the underrated talent of Rajasthan. Something needs to be done to make the job generators meet the job seekers. Somebody needs to take the initiative. And here Zigsaw consultancy services come into the picture, why because it has taken a step to curb this problem of India.
Zigsaw plans to organize a job festival across all the potential cities in India. Udaipur being the first in the series, because Zigsaw aims to first aims to improve the job condition of its abode ie Udaipur. This job festival invites every job seeker, every job generator, and every company that seeks visibility and branding among a large mass of people in the form of sponsorship. This is the platform for the individuals to showcase their talents among a variety of start-ups and medium scale companies. This is the portal for the companies to meet the talent pool of Udaipur and hire the best in business.
I on behalf of Zigsaw invite all of you to this potential magnum opus of Udaipur because of its gonna rain with jobs.
One place, one day, one initiative comes and joins us at Udaipur Job Fest.
