A recent survey discovered that 87% of all Indian college graduates are not industry ready. This is because conventional Indian colleges only focus on theoretical lectures, textbooks and exams which only build memorization but not the skills needed by Indian employers.
ask.CAREERS education model, called the “Responsive Learning System,” has been proved to graduate the most industry ready job candidates in India.
KEY FEATURE INCLUDE
Student to Career Goal Alignment
We sit with you to understand your career goals, and then together create a personal career roadmap that guides you towards developing the required qualities for your desired job.
ask.BENCHMARKS
We have worked with employers to understand the specific attitudes, skills and knowledge (ASK) needed to perform well in management roles in various industry sectors. Our ask.BENCHMARKS measures you on these parameters and shows you what you need to develop to get the career of your dreams.
These parameters are:
- Professional Work Ethic (Attitude)
- Self-Starter Ability (Attitude)
- Team working Ability (Attitude)
- Written & Oral Communication (Skills),
- Problem Solving Ability (Skills)
- Industry Domain Knowledge (Knowledge)
Practical Hands-on Learning to develop attitudes, skills & knowledge
Along with measuring your attitudes, skills & knowledge; our Responsive Learning System helps you build them further through a fun and challenging process. All our faculty have worked in industry & coach our students instead of just giving boring lectures. Our classroom sessions combine online content via our ask.CAREERS smartphone app with offline workshops, simulations and live projects.
Targeted Internships & Placements
Unlike many other institutions, we do not place you in whatever company is most convenient. We understand your needs & strengths, based on the ask.BENCHMARKS system and match you to the job that is most suited to you. This ensures that you are successful over the long term as you are working in a role that you enjoy and which suits your strengths.
