Trak reports that the top 5 IT companies including TCS, Infosys, HCL, Wipro and Tech Mahindra are on a hiring spree where they have hired about 64,000 employees in six months to September 2019.

This is 18% higher than the last time, when they hired around 54,000 people. Owing to layoff and adjusting the pyramid, these companies have hired entry-level employees and laid off mid-level employees.
