India as a global IT hub has seen a constant increase
in the demand for professionals in the sector especially, Full-Stack
developers. A previous NASSCOM study shows Full-Stack Developer jobs as one of
the five emerging jobs in India. This demand has been accelerated by the
pandemic-led digitization of businesses and the emergence of new business
models. Alongside the rise in demand, various research also indicates the need
for upskilling among the existing graduates. According to official statistics,
50% of the 4mn employees of the IT industry need to be reskilled over the next
3 years.
