Maninder Singh Nayyar, Secretary, Bal Bharti Academy, highlighted the importance of such events, saying, “Nagaland’s unemployment rate is 19.2%, with youth unemployment even higher at 55.2%. Job fairs like this help address the employment gap and create much-needed opportunities. The success of this event shows the urgent need for more such initiatives in the region. Bal Bharti Academy and Bosch are dedicated to organizing more job fairs and supporting skill development programs. We are also running a project for persons with disabilities in Delhi and Kannauj, helping 50 individuals. This initiative strengthens our commitment to empowering youth and building a stronger workforce in India.”
Sakina Baker CSR Head Bosch India and Bosch India foundation,”Providing jobs is just one part of the solution, helping young people gain confidence, skills, and direction is just as important. This job fair has given many individuals the chance to take control of their careers and contribute meaningfully to society. Seeing so many candidates secure jobs reinforces our commitment to closing the employment gap, promoting long-term career growth, and driving economic progress for individuals and communities alike.”
At the event, Bal Bharti Academy and Bosch under social engagement activity held a career guidance session to help job seekers understand different career options and what employers expect. The session covered job trends, interview tips, and workplace skills to improve their chances of getting hired. Experts also gave one-on-one counseling, answered questions, and shared advice on career growth. Participants learned how to enhance their skills and prepare for long-term career success.
The large number of participants shows the need for more job opportunities and skill training in the region. To support this, Bal Bharti Academy and Bosch plan to host more job fairs, BRIDGE Program training, and career programs.
