She advised students to develop, along with technical knowledge, communication skills, problem-solving abilities, teamwork, leadership qualities, and industry-relevant skills. Ijaz Khan, CEO, Talensio, said that obtaining a B.Tech degree is important, but preparing oneself to secure employment opportunities in reputed companies after graduation is equally important.
