Genpact partners with TeamLease to hire over 5,000 graduate apprentices

TeamLease Degree Apprenticeship (TLDA) on Monday said it has joined hands with global professional services and solutions firm Genpact under which the latter will employ over 5,000 graduate apprentices through the Ministry of Education apprenticeship programme.

Apprenticeships have emerged as indispensable talent supply chain interventions across various industries, specifically in the last 4-5 years. However, the skill deficit of 3.85 million is a looming threat that IT and BPM businesses must address as a matter of importance, TeamLease Degree Apprenticeship Vice-President Dhriti Prasanna Mahanta said in a statement.
