Major corporations used to have their pick of the best minds as they left university. But there's now a talent shortage, and 53% of UK workers say that no amount of money could tempt them to a company with a poor employer brand. So how can businesses build their brand to attract the best applicants?

India’s top engineering graduates are bypassing some of their country’s top tech jobs, in pursuit of an international career in the attractive Silicon Valley. Opportunistic Gen Yers want to thrive in their careers, even if it means working abroad for less pay.

Due to long hours at the office and time-consuming commutes, employees in India have a poor work-life balance compared to the rest of the world. And as they face talent shortages, some companies are introducing policies to tackle this, and attract potential employees to boot.

Technical skills have long been a priority within Indian education, but as technology threatens to replace much of the workforce, emotional intelligence and people skills are becoming more valuable. Unfortunately, the majority of Indian Gen Y workers feel as though they lack these soft skills.
