According to Ministry of Defence, the Directorate General Resettlement (DGR), Ex-Servicemen Welfare, signed an MoU with IBM to engage ex-servicemen and to facilitate their seamless integration into the civilian workforce.
Through this MoU, DGR will collaborate with IBM to tap into the rich talent pool of ex-servicemen for relevant job opportunities that may continue to arise at the company and its affiliates.
DGR and IBM will collaborate, on a continuous basis, to identify ex-servicemen with skillset and aptitude suitable for various open positions within the company. After assessment and shortlisting of candidates, IBM will leverage its resources and expertise to facilitate the recruitment, training, and upskilling of ex-servicemen for those roles, defence ministry official added
