Its new ZIP program revolves around a digital skill card, which is a learning-cum-employment aid for young graduates that cannot afford or do not have a reliable and continuous access to the Internet. ZIP is a fully digital self-help platform that allows young job seekers watch interactive video lessons, take multiple practice tests, obtain personalized performance analytics, and reference personalized study material to enhance their current skill sets and make themselves more employable. Moreover, the ZIP platform allows them to access job opportunities with TalentSprint's expanding partner network of 700+ employers. Sharing his thoughts on ZIP, K. Sridhar, Chief Digital Officer, TalentSprint, said, "The new ZIP platform allows fresh graduates and first-time job seekers to empower and upskill themselves on their own accord and compete successfully for aspirational jobs. This can be done even as they lack access to good college classrooms or good Internet facilities. ZIP addresses the gap between the surge in colege graduates and high employment expectations, thus reducing unemployment."
