Karnataka in the year 2014-2015. The company has successfully conducted 28
editions of FLAG across Tamilnadu till now and helped placing more than 1800
students in companies across the country.
Announcing the venture into Karnataka Emmanuel Justus, CEO,
EmployabilityBridge said “We are delighted to expand into Karnataka after our
big success in Tamilnadu. Our 4th FLAG event for this year and the
first in Karnataka is scheduled for November 15th at East West
Institute of Technology, Bengaluru. For this FLAG event companies from manufacturing,
engineering services, IT, ITES including Esko Graphics, 3DPLM Software, Ceratitzit,
Azureiken Technologies, Headrun Technologies, Hinduja Global Solutions are
participating. According to Higher
Education statistics 80% of the colleges in India are from tier-2/tier-3 cities
and outskirts of metros. These Institutions don’t have access to corporate for
placements like the older reputed institutes and institutes located in the
metros. Hence to bridge the gap between the corporate and these institutions
and to increase the job access to the students the concept FLAG born.”
“We at present work with various corporate houses across the
country and educational institutions across Tamilnadu & Karnataka to enable
graduate hiring in a pre-planned manner. Since inception from 2011 we are
receiving enormous response from both the corporate houses and institutions. We
also partnered with CII for their industry expertise and enhance the reach.
With our data we found that students hired through FLAG sticks to the company
long and hence reduce the attrition level” he added.
Ambalavanan, CTO, EmployabilityBridge
said “We are overwhelmed with the response for our FLAG programs from corporate
and institutions. Our technology platform – www.employabilitybridge.com plays a critical role in
our FLAG event by enabling students and companies to pre-select whom they want
to meet and for the smooth execution of the FLAG event in organized manner. Some
of the companies are keen to engage with their selected students from FLAG
event before they come onboard as full time employee. Our technology platform enables such corporate
to interact with their future employees & preparing for success in their first
job till they join them. This greatly increases the joining ratio as well as
reduces the graduate training effort & time for companies. “
Our next flag event in Karnataka is scheduled for
February 2015. And as a part of our expansion we are entering Kerala with our
first FLAG during December 2014.
