India, China both boast of huge populations, running into billions. Despite the favorable demographics, the question is whether the working population is actually talented? Well, as today's chart of the day shows, the BRIC nations feature very dismally in the Economist Intelligence Unit's Global Talent Index. China and India are ranked no. 33 and no. 35 respectively. No other nation in the world is growing as quickly as these two countries. Multinational companies looking to set up shop are frantically looking for talent. But, an adequate pipeline of employees equipped to step into the breach is just not available. The US on the other hand takes the no. 1 spot on account of its top universities. One in three colleges, in the US is ranked in the top 500 globally. These colleges churn out graduates who are well prepared to take on the world.
