Infosys to hire 16,000 College graduates in March 2015
Indian Multinational software
services provider Infosys is set to hire 16,000 freshers through campus
recruitments in the fiscal year ending March 2015, although the March 2014
session may not be seeing as many recruitments. Executive chairmain Narayana Murthy
mentioned Infosys is vying for large outsourcing contracts and is in the
process of making offers during a lecture at Vivekanand Education Society in
Mumbai. The expected success will help them attain stronger growth as India's second
largest software services provider.
The IT industry hiring in India has seen
a decline due to the global IT Industry recession but is seeing improvements.
Campus recruitments however constitute only 40% (earlier 60%) of the workforce
of IT Firms. A major disadvantage of hiring direct graduates is that they
require months of training before they are able to actively begin work. One of India's largest
IT services provider Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is planning to hire 25,000
fresher from campus recruitments in the March 2015 ending fiscal year.
"If India has to become as powerful in software, as China is in hardware, it will have to improve
the quality of engineering education in India and work to create more high
quality engineers," said Murthy at Vivekanad Education Society, Mumbai.
The Software Services sector, currently a $108 Billion (Rs 6.7 lakh crore)
industry in India,
expects further growth in the coming year.
