Infosys launches solution to reskill American workforce for post-covid employment needs

Bengaluru: Infosys Ltd on Wednesday launched a consortium in partnership with talent matching platform pymetrics that will leverage Infosys’ Wingspan and pymetrics’ artificial intelligence (AI)-based talent-matching platform to meet the reskilling and employment needs raised by the covid-19 crisis in America.

In the last 24 months, Infosys has implemented their localisation initiative at a large scale in the US, recruiting more than 10,000 US nationals or permanent residents and significantly reduced their dependence on work visas.

The Reskill and Restart solution by Infosys’ learning platform Wingspan “takes job seekers on a guided journey, beginning with aptitude and skills assessment, followed by curated job-specific skills training, and culminating in matching them with available positions,” Infosys said.
