Why This Matters
In India, this trend is already visible:
- 🎓 Graduates are getting jobs, but not aligned with their skills
- 💼 Many professionals feel underpaid or undervalued
- 🔄 Frequent job switching without long-term growth
👉 This creates a cycle of “busy but not progressing.”
🔍 What is “Job Quality” Anyway?
It’s not just about salary 💰
High-quality jobs include:
- 📈 Career growth opportunities
- 🧠 Skill utilization
- ⚖️ Work-life balance
- 🤝 Meaningful mentorship
- 🌍 Global exposure
👉 Without these, a job becomes just survival, not success.
