The current global recession, spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions, has significantly impacted employment worldwide, including in India. In 2020, India's unemployment rate hit a record high of 23.5% in April. While some sectors have rebounded, industries like hospitality and travel continue to face challenges. The rise of remote work and digital transformation has increased the demand for tech skills. This recession has not only led to widespread job losses but also underscored the urgent need for workers to adapt and reskill in a rapidly changing job market.
