Preface
The present report is the outcome of the research of Akriti Awasthi Maharishi
University of Information Technology, Lucknow organized at the HCL. The
objective of the internship program was to familiarize the student with the
implementation of the knowledge she/he earned on campus. The practical
knowledge is far different from the bookish knowledge that a student achieves in
an institution.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Lack of skill and will is what make us go on backfoot. Lucknow is a city of so many colleges
delivering graduates, which can easily be consumed by companies at entry- level jobs, but is
it really that simple? No, it is not. Rather the reality is that these graduates lack industry
knowledge and skills which is highly needed for being an employee. Due to that top
companies such as HCL in Lucknow started their special training and hiring programmers,
which train fresher’s and also help company in recruiting skilled candidates at entry- level job
roles.
But, then what’s the problem? The problem is that maximum students in Lucknow do not
understand the importance and requirement of such training also maximum population of
Lucknow belongs to middle class or lower middle class hence they strongly do not prefer to
pay for such training and hiring programs.
All of this makes it a big mess for HRs of HCL to hire fresher’s, the turn-up ratio is low and
also because of these issues students in Lucknow usually are running short on jobs. This is
the main reason why I thought to do this study. The objective was to find the impact of
Industry- Academia collaboration on recruitment process of HCL.
After conducting a systematic study, I found that such collaborations are highly needed and
also both college and the company would like to come together as it will only create a win-
win situation for every party involved with this. Such collaborations will definitely impact
the recruitment process of HCL- Lucknow.
Findings also show that the impact will be positive on every related entity and based on that
the suggestion for company is to collaborate with local colleges to create a job-ready pool of
talent and to decrease the cost and time of training, after this kind of collaboration.
