As the reliance on digital infrastructure is growing at a rapid pace in India, 4 Indian IT sector giants Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Infosys, Wipro and HCL Technologies are reportedly eyeing to jointly recruit more than 1.1 lakh freshers this year
TCS
The Livemint mentioned that TCS will be hiring over 40,000 freshers from campuses in India in the fiscal year 2021-22, as claimed by the firm in its quarterly earnings update. “From the campus in India, we hired 40,000 last year. We will continue to hire and hire 40,000 or more this year in India,” Milind Lakkad, Executive Vice President and Global Head – Human Resources in TCS said.
Infosys
Infosys plans to hire 35,000 college graduates for FY22 globally. “As the demand for digital talent explodes, rising attrition in the industry poses a near-term challenge. We plan to meet this demand by expanding our hiring program of college graduates for FY 22 to 35,000 globally,” its Chief Operating Officer Pravin Rao had said in the Q1 earnings announcement said.
Wipro
More than 10,000 people were lateral hires in Wipro in the first quarter, while a little less than 2,000 freshers were onboarded. The company will roll out over 30,000 offer letters this year for freshers to join in FY23. Of the 30,000 offers, 22,000 freshers are expected to join.
However, Wipro CEO and Managing Director Thierry Delaporte stated that higher attrition is becoming a universal issue and that Wipro is adapting quickly to tackle the challenge.
HCL Tech
HCL Technologies will welcome over 20,000 freshers this year. “This year, we are targeting anywhere between 20,000-22,000 freshers and I will not be surprised if we cross this number…in Q2, we are targeting (to onboard) 6,000 (freshers),” its Chief Human Resources Officer Apparao V V had said in a briefing recently. The firm, in 2020, had onboarded 14,600 freshers globally.
