Hyderabad: Switch Idea, a Mumbai based venture valued at Rs. 6.5 crore, hopes to bridge the gap between traditional recruitment and industry requirements by introducing internships with its National Talent Acquisition Test (NTAT), India’s first intern prescreening aptitude examination.
Switch Idea was started by Niranjan Yadav and Rohit Maku, because when they graduated from college, they found there were not enough opportunities for students and graduates to connect with companies. “We started thinking about how we could use technology to solve this problem,” says Yadav.
“The result was an online platform that helps students discover the best internships and entry level openings in a hassle free manner.” National Talent Acquisition Test (NTAT) was created to help partner companies prescreen interns and connect with verified students in a simple and convenient way.
The NTAT is offered twice a year and the next examination takes place in Hyderabad, on September 20 at Jawaharlal Nehru Technical University (JNTU). Topics covered on the 90minute exam include math, logical reasoning, ethics and work situations and will assess students understanding of workplace scenarios.
Students and recent graduates can register for an upcoming National Talent Acquisition Test at a nominal fee. The number of slots left for an upcoming test is shown in real time. After students take the National Talent Acquisition Test, their scores are integrated into their profiles.
Since student identity is manually verified at the examination centre, companies accessing the Switch Idea database are assured of students’ identities, college associations and the degrees they are pursuing. Students should register for the National Talent Acquisition Test 2015 on www.switchidea.com/ntat and bring their college ID, hall ticket, a printed copy of their resume and a black ballpoint pen to the test venue.
NTAT Helpline number is 9555141142. Commenting on the Test, Switch Idea cofounder Niranjan Yadav (a 22 year old entrepreneur and an award winning blogger) said, “National Talent Acquisition Test (NTAT) is a proprietary test offered by Switch Idea to make hiring interns easy and painless.
More than 1500 companies use our database for their hiring needs, including MeraEvents, CISCO, Intel, Philips, Dell, CargoExchange, Tech Trunk, Neti Software, eBay, CampusDiaries, Freecharge, Intel India, Logitia Solutions, Flipkart and many others.”
