The research looked at the employability according to states where the different engineering campuses are located. The states were placed in four bins in the decreasing order of employability i.e. the states with highest employability percentages were placed in the Top 25 percentile bin while those with lower employability percentages were placed in following bins.

In a day and age when startups are believed to be the 'in thing', very few engineers want to work for startups. Only around 6% of engineers have startup companies as their first job preference. If we consider those who are both employable and aspire to work with startups, the number decreases to 1.9%. Hence, startup companies shall have a very hard time attracting and hiring students for their organization.

As per the report, out of the 6,00,000 engineers that graduate annually, only 18.43% are employable for the Software Engineer-IT services role, while a dismal 3.95% are appropriately trained to be directly deployed on projects. For core jobs in mechanical, electronics/electrical and civil engineering, only a mere 7.49% are employable. In contrast, 53% engineers have software role as the most preferred job, whereas 44% prefer core engineering jobs. This means 97% engineers want jobs either in software or core engineering.

Firstly, an economy with a large percent of unemployable qualified candidates is not only inefficient, but socially unstable. Secondly, there is a large mismatch in the aspirations of graduating engineers and their job readiness, which can create large-scale dissatisfaction and disillusionment.

My nephew's stepmom's relative is from Ludhiana, he has got a Phd scholarship in Germany with BMW as an engineer, so yes, people do do well from there.
