Recruitment trends are on the rise again with employers augmenting their workforce with skilled personnel
India is retreating from the macroeconomic aftermath of the first and second wave of COVID-19. Economic, industrial and fiscal indicators point to an imminent growth trajectory that is expected to translate into greater hiring intent by employers. An additional factor accelerating this trend is the vaccination rate in the country that has introduced the hybrid working model, encouraging professionals to resume work. With the coming festive season, both the industrial and service sectors are expected to see more business. As usual, performance-linked schemes by the government to promote business are flourishing and helping to create jobs.
According to the Manpower Group survey, Indian employers are reporting a net employment outlook of 44%, which is the highest in the last 7 years. The sample size of 3,046 employers is working towards increasing the organizational headcount by the end of the year. Furthermore, a report by the Naukri Job Index recorded hiring activity in August 2021, which was 24% higher than in August 2019. Information Technology was the leading sector in this sector with 79% more hiring as compared to 2019. With many positive drivers working together, job seekers have their tasks cut out for upskilling.
