In today’s episode of Figuring Out, we have Arunkumar Pillai in conversation with Raj Shamani. He is the Director General at Namtech, he is an ExCSO at NSDC, and Partner at EY.
When it comes to knowledge of engineering colleges, career development, and similar topics, he has some great insights to share.

In this episode, we talked about why the Indian education system is always questioned, why our GDP is increasing but our average individual net worth is not increasing, and why 40% of engineers remain jobless every year. We also discussed how Singapore grew its economy, why many engineers regret after doing engineering and what is the major difference between top engineering colleges and average engineering colleges. We then talked about why 2500+ colleges have shut down in India and why many technical engineering students go for nontechnical jobs.

Towards the end, we talked about why many engineers don’t even get a basic standard salary, how Namtech's 12month program is different, and how it will help engineers build better careers as engineers. We then talked about the top 5 skills people should learn to get highpaying jobs in the future and how candidates can negotiate their salaries better. For such insightful conversations, don’t forget to subscribe to our channel.
