Hyderabad May 22 Genpact, a business services and technology solutions company, has started accepting applications for its Associate Trainee Program 2007 with Osmania University, Hyderabad.

The programme allows candidates to work and earn a Bachelor of Commerce (with Computers) degree simultaneously. The last date of admission for the programme is August 31, 2007.

Aimed at students who have completed Class XII and are in the process of pursuing a college degree, it allows students to gain valuable work experience in the largest business services and technology solutions company, while studying for their graduation degree. Upon completion of the three-year programme, a student obtains three years of work experience and is offered full-time employment at Genpact.

The Associate Trainee Program was rolled out last year in February 2006 with Osmania University and then with Delhi University. Over 500 students across the country are already on their way to enhance their careers through this programme.

Work experience

Speaking on the programme, Mr Ashok Tyagi, Senior Vice-President, Genpact, said, "The Associate Trainee Program has enabled a number of students from across the country to gain valuable work experience while they complete their graduation."

According to Mohammed Suleman Siddiqi, Vice-Chancellor, Osmania University, "Last year we embarked on the innovative initiative of `learn while you earn' to give a new orientation and meaning to the university industry interaction, which has shown promising results for our students."

The programme is based on `learn while you earn' concept, where students spend two days of the week on campus for their education and three days working at Genpact to gain valuable work experience. They are also allowed two weekly holidays to spend time with family and friends.
