SWAMI VIVEKANAND YOUTH EMPLOYMENT WEEK
For the first time in India, Gujarat celebrated Swami Vivekanand Youth Employment Week
from 9th
to 15th
April 2012 by offering Employment letters to 65000 youths during this week . This
Job Fair Week was unique in the country because of the proactive role of the State Government
machinery i.e. Directorate of Employment and Training in collecting data of immediate requirement
of skilled manpower in private sector industries and carried out campaign to make this information
reach the employable youth of the state in those industries.
Many states including Gujarat keep organizing job fairs as a onetime event every year where
the stakeholders participation happened to be a one day affair. Whereas Swami Vivekananda Youth
Employment Week was meticulously planned from October 2011 and implementation process
started from November 2011 onwards. By 15th
November 2011, the officers of Directorate of
Employment & Training, cutting across their individual branch domain approached the industries
located in their area through CII, FICCI, GCII, GIDC associations etc. and could identify the skilled
manpower requirement to the tune of about 100000.

Having found such a huge manpower
requirement, massive publicity campaigns
were organized to make this information
reach skilled youth of the state through Print
media, Electronic media, Radio jingles, TV
scrolls, Banners, Leaflets, Brochures etc. This
publicity campaign continued from 15th
November 2011 to 31st
March 2012. During
this period, preliminary interview camps
were organized at Industrial Estates of
Taluka level and of District level between the
Employers and Prospective employees. In the
preliminary scrutiny, out of 126610 youths, 76843 were primarily selected and from January 2012
onwards, final selection interview camps were organized between the Employers and the Prospective
employees. This resulted in the final selection of 65,000 youths in the state.
An interesting phenomenon
emerged from this Swami Vivekananda
Youth Employment Week was that more
than 20% of youth of the Socially and
Economically Backward Class of the
society could get Job offers in the Private
Sector Industries. Many physically
challenged persons also had employment
opportunities in various Industries that
motivated similarly placed youth to take
up training in technical skill up-gradation
so as to get better placements in the
private sector. Participation of Employers were
from the sectors of Banking, Pharmaceutical, Insurance, IT, Chemical, Mechanical, Apparel, Textile
etc.
