Single largest employer of fresh graduates and interns here
SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass. – Virtusa Corporation (NASDAQ GS: VRTU), a global provider of digital strategy, digital engineering, and IT services and solutions that help clients change and disrupt markets through innovation engineering, extended their Digital Discoverer Program (DDP) to more Sri Lankan universities following its successful conclusion at the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT), University of Colombo and University of Jaffna.
“As the single largest employer of fresh graduates and interns in Sri Lanka, we identified a growing skill gap in workforce newcomers due to rapidly evolving industry requirements,” said Sampath Thrimavithana, Head of Training & Development and Campus Reach at Virtusa – Sri Lanka & Asia Pacific. “That initial leap from graduate to your first job is crucial for professional success, and the Digital Discoverer Program maps current industry anticipation to relevant technical and soft skills, successfully addressing this long-ignored university-to-workplace skill gap.”
