India currently monopolizes software development offshoring due to its sheer amount of IT professionals. This year, however, has been particularly volatile for Indian firms and India’s reputation as a well-educated coder mecca. In 2017, Aspiring Minds, a research and assessment firm, surveyed 36,000 engineering students from 500 Indian universities and found that less than 5% of students can perform high-skilled programming. This isn’t the first time India’s “quality vs quantity” criticism has arisen. Back in 2011, a different study conducted by an Indian firm found only 25% of IT engineering graduates to be employable.
