The ArSRLM informed that programme manager Nabam Ompi hosted and conducted both pre-counselling and post-counselling sessions.
A coffee table book, drafted and edited by Nabam Ompi, was also launched on 6 February, it said, adding that the book “covers ArSRLM initiatives and countless stories of individuals whose lives have been positively impacted.”
Rural Development Director Kego Jilen congratulated the selected candidates, while Zomato Company manager Saurabh Suman said, “We were impressed by the quality of candidates at the job fair. ArSRLM and DDUGKY have created a valuable platform for Zomato.”
Rural Skills COO Ruzing Bellai said, “This initiative guides rural unemployed youths in getting jobs in organised sector, and on the other hand supports the industries in getting skilled and trained human resource for better growth and success of their businesses.”
