India's youth gets picky; finds stable jobs most attractive

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 12 Juni 2014 | 08.10

According to the survey, over 36 percent of India's Gen-Y said they still consider IT their top career choice. Nearly 20 percent went with engineering, only around 10 percent said they found the glamour of the media & entertainment industry attractive and a paltry 1.2 percent picked a job in the retail sector.

Smartphones over laptops, Facebook over Twitter, and IT jobs over jobs in the retail sector, Gen-Y is decisive in its preferences and there's a method to the madness. CNBC-TV18 reports on the results of a  TCS survey on what Gen-Y wants.

According to the survey, over 36 percent of India's Gen-Y said they still consider IT their top career choice. Nearly 20 percent went with engineering, only around 10 percent said they found the glamour of the media & entertainment industry attractive and a paltry 1.2 percent picked a job in the retail sector.

The experts say this choice has to do with job stability.

Ajoy Mukherjee, director & Head - HR, TCS says, while the choice of specialization varies, for example, last year people preferred computer science, now they prefer more emerging fields. It is still apparent that the kind of stability in engineering and IT attracts the maximum number of freshers. The love for technology also came through in the other lifestyle choices.

The 18,196 students in the 12-18 age-group across 14 cities that TCS polled said they prefer Facebook to Twitter for its ease of use and indicated social networking site Orkut was as alive as king Tutenkhamun.

Gen-Y also has a decided preference for online shopping, with 7 of 10 urban teenagers choosing virtual shop-floors over kicking it old-school at the mall.
