About the Book & Presentation =======================

While the number of students graduating out of engineering colleges has shot up to more than 15 lakhs, only 10-25% can be gainfully and readily employed in the industry. The main cause of this gap is the absence of soft skills. Studies of Fortune 500 companies have reaffirmed the findings that 75% of long term success in career depends on people and soft skills and only 25% in technical skills. As a student moves out of the protected environment of a college into the demanding world of industry, it requires cultivating excellent personal and professional attitudes and develop the ability to adapt to changing situations.

The book, From College to Career - How to Make the Transition and Become a Successful Professional, by Gopalaswamy Ramesh and Mahadevan Ramesh that is getting launched, captures the essence of such career building by focusing on several important topics, ranging all the way from initial job hunting and the placement process to communication skills and social responsibility. The contents of this book have been developed based on successful execution of courses on Soft Skills and Professional Development at IIT, Madras and other places. This presentation by the author, Gopalaswamy Ramesh will highlight the skills required and some practical tips to achieving those skills and provide a brief overview of the book.
