Leading internet company Info Edge (India) Ltd's blue-collar recruitment portal JobHai.com on Tuesday announced a collaboration with YuWaah at UNICEF to provide better employment opportunities to skilled young people in India.
The partnership between Job Hai and YuWaah aims to provide better salary jobs for the youth locally, a statement said.
Over a lakh of MSME recruiters and job providers have already used this platform for their hiring needs.
Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai and Hyderabad have accounted for nearly 50 per cent of blue-collar jobs in recent years, and Job Hai offers significant opportunities to such aspirants in these cities.
"With this coalition, we also look forward to making a significant impact on the lives of young people and connecting them with employment opportunities in accordance with their interests and ambitions," said Dhuwarakha Sriram, Chief of Generation Unlimited India, Youth Development and Partnerships at UNICEF.
The application is already available in vernacular languages like Hindi, Marathi, Telugu, Bangla and Gujarati. With more under development, the app in a few months will be available in over 10 vernacular languages.
