Shradha Garg at IIAD

Shradha Garg is the Vice President of Design and Product Development at Raj Overseas. She visited the IIAD campus for the HR Summit on ‘Bridging the Gap between the expectations of employers and the aspirations of the youth’. The youth of today are struggling to find their first job and employers also often find it difficult to get dedicated and inspired young professionals. As a result, there is a mismatch that arises leading to low efficiency and a spiraling attrition rate.

Addressing this issue, Ms Garg stressed on the willingness to learn, adapt and align ones’ self with the team to function as a unit. She also went on to highlight key skills that organisations and companies look for in aspiring candidates.

Ms Garg who has been in the textile industry for over 18 years provided the students with an insight into how the design industry functions and what to keep in mind when looking for the right job in today’s age.

"It was an amazing idea! I wish we had something like this in our time. It would have been much easier for us to enter the industry."
