Top Companies Accenture, Amazon, Wipro, Tech Mahindra & Others Hiring Freshers: Report! 

As per an Economic Times report, firms into IT-software, pharmaceuticals/biotechnology, Business Process Outsourcing/IT enabled Services, medical/healthcare and Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) are posting the maximum number of jobs for freshers. These jobs come with 0-2 years of experience. 

Meanwhile, the profiles most in demand include sales and marketing executives, data entry and back office, IT software engineer/developer and tele-callers.

According to leading job sites like Freshersworld.com, Indeed.com and Naukri.com; the companies who are hiring freshers include Accenture, Amazon, Wipro, Muthoot Finance, Ernst & Young Global Business Services, Tech Mahindra, Mphasis, Paytm, Reliance Industries, WNS Global, HCL Technologies, Bajaj Capital, Simplilearn, Tesco, NTT, Microland, Dell and IBM India. 

Meanwhile, a growing staffing firm - TeamLease, currently has around 350,000 job openings for freshers. 

Sharing his opinion on the job vacancies, Kaushik Banerjee, VP and business head at TeamLease and Freshersworld said the 70 percent decline during the lockdown was unseen even during the peak of the 2008-09 financial crisis. Job vacancies are up significantly from the March-April period. 

“Companies took tough calls - including layoffs - in the March-May period. But right after, they assessed their business potential and geared up for profiles they need to hire,” Banerjee said.

Even Pawan Goyal, chief business officer at Naukri.com said fresher jobs are down by two-thirds when compared to the pre-lockdown period, but still “around 900 companies have posted jobs for freshers in June (as on June 25), which adds up to 3,800 jobs.”  

Meanwhile, Sashi Kumar, managing director at Indeed India said: "The job market for freshers will likely be tougher than we have seen for a number of years. Fewer available jobs, combined with greater competition for those jobs, will squeeze out some new graduates. Freshers may need to consider their options and improve their qualifications and skills to make themselves more appealing in a tough job market."

Economic Times furter reports that recruitment and staffing firm CIEL HR Services, is currently hiring candidates for white-collar jobs which is now at 40 percent of pre-COVID-19 levels, said CEO Aditya Mishra. 

“Other roles such as finance, HR, admin, operations, engineering, production and quality are seeing less hiring, mostly to fill critical gaps in an organisation,” Mishra said.
