These career centers should be able to bring the like minded people to work together. If someone in Northern Indian state and Southern Indian state seems to be having a same interest in some specific field, ways should be found out to bring them together for the mutual benefit

If these career centers provides access to other information too, that would be widely used. Along with the plumper, electrician details, these career centers could share the details of the local post offices which sells the solar lamp kind of things to the job seekers. And they could collect the details of people who likes stamp collecting and could share the information with post offices. Similarly they could collect the details from the job seekers/employers about their interest in purchases.
