Shillong Technology Park, a key driver of the region's IT ecosystem, has reported the generation of 1,454 fresh job openings. The recruitment drive spans a range of roles in software development, data analytics, and support services. According to the park's management, the initiative aims to boost local employment and attract talent from across the Northeast.
