With the increasing population, there is demand for almost everything. The ever-increasing demand is also making it impossible for companies to fulfil the demand.  But among all this, there has been immense debate over the relevance of this increasing demand for everything. Indirectly the demand is not creating any kind of opportunity for the people. The number of opportunities in terms of jobs for qualified people is also very less. The opportunities are also reducing because the number of eligible candidates is also many. Sometimes a question also arises what is the main reason for the huge unemployment of the people? The reasons are many, but there are a few which do not need much introduction. Here, online education plays a crucial role. First of all, it reduces the time wasted in travelling to reach the school. On the other hand, students can use this time in learning a new skill or apply their knowledge in some internship. 

The first step towards getting a job is education. Now, education can give something to a deserving person. This does not mean that one needs to be in a hurry. The most important for getting a job is that of skill. The better your skill is, the better it will be to get a job. The education of a person will not fully take care of the fact that the person is skilled. The need of the hour is to do something extra that can make us skilled. Especially the schools where students do get to learn the basics properly. Education is going to be there, but some practical application of that education will make the education system more effective. The option to make internship compulsory even for online courses, will be beneficial. If students also use online courses with their regular curriculum to reach new heights. Then it will be great for all. Along with some hands-on experience, even online mode will give some practice for the school students.   

But there are several reasons that there is so low rate of education. One of them is also because of the cost of education. Today we have several schools that are private and charge a lot even for basic education. So, if we reduce the cost of education then it becomes easy to make some of the population able to get educated. 

But there are reasons in terms of society, that are not making it possible. As a result, the immense benefits of education are out of reach for many Indians. Now, the question arises how to bridge this space?

For that, we can take the help of technology. Now we can take the help of online classes to get rid of some of our issues. Yes, there will be issues in terms of the confidence or exposure that one can get by interacting with others in an actual physical class. But still, the fact that one can at least get educated, is a big plus. The fact is that there needs to be some proper system that can be good for the entire online student group. Those who did not get the opportunity to even get a graduation degree during their young days can get benefits in online mode. Especially, women who are housewives and have the enthusiasm to get educated and get a decent job becomes possible through online education. 

The option to get educated itself opens various doors for the general public. But is there anything more that technology can do? Yes, technology is already giving several people the chance to even learn any skill through online videos and get a job based on pure skills. So, the option to even improve our skills through various competitions is another plus of technology. The various websites that give us the option to compete in various competitions will give us more exposure. One such website is Unstop.com. 

On the other hand, websites like LinkedIn give us the option to create a profile on the internet and look for suitable job opportunities online (here online means on the internet). Websites like Monomousumi.com also give various people the opportunity to show their writing skills. The platforms like Codechef, do provide everyone the opportunity to experience real-world problems. The problems are of various difficulty levels. The questions allow us to prepare for the real challenges of the job field. 

So, now all of the above points give us some direction. Now, we need to work on these facts to get to a dream position. Some of us can become engineers. Some of us can become doctors. But all these fields need some sort of road to get to our ultimate target. The aims in our lives which we can call our career, can be far away sometimes. But if we put in consistent and determined efforts, then we can achieve them.
