India's job market for finance graduates is facing a paradox: despite a growing need for skilled professionals, freshers are struggling to get hired. This is partly due to the rapidly changing nature of the finance industry, which requires employees to have expertise in data analysis, digital systems, and AI-enabled tools. As a result, many young graduates are finding it difficult to meet the expectations of potential employers, who are looking for candidates with a strong foundation in technology and business acumen.
