Callus Company, a South Korean startup dedicated to linking young talent to international markets, has unveiled an ambitious plan to create a talent pool of 1,00,000 Indian candidates by 2026. This initiative is part of Callus's strategy to empower Indian students and professionals with competitive salaries and international career opportunities.
The programme features internship-based recruitment aligned with the University Grants Commission (UGC) guidelines, requiring students to complete 60-120 hours of internships before graduation. To achieve this, Callus has collaborated with top universities, including SRM University in Chennai, Amity University in Noida, and VTU in Bangalore, ensuring a consistent supply of qualified candidates.
CEO Ryan Kim emphasized the company's mission to build an equitable platform that provides stable, long-term employment opportunities, contrasting with the common trend of short-term contracts. This approach not only benefits Indian professionals but also offers global companies access to a motivated and skilled workforce.
