The job sector is undergoing a major overhaul, with the demand for new and updated skills increasing rapidly. With more and more companies adopting new-age tools and technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data, Machine Learning, and Cloud Computing among others, the training and skilling paradigm of jobseekers has changed, which in turn has opened up significant scope for diversified avenues that can provide an uninterrupted pool of ready-to-hire talent.
