India Inc to witness 20-30% pick up in hirings in FY 10

Mumbai: Riding high on a six to seven per cent expected economic growth and signs of global economy gradually bouncing back, India Inc is likely to hire 20-30 per cent more talent in FY 10, a top industry official said.

"In 2010 (January-December), I envisage atleast 20-30 per cent increase in recruitments by companies," said recruitment consultancy firm, Fun & Joy At Work's Chief Executive Officer R L Bhatia.

This would be over and above the 30 per cent dip in hiring that was witnessed last year, Bhatia said.

Fun & Joy At Work is a nine-year-old recruitment firm with offices across Mumbai and Singapore. The company claims providing talent consultancy to a host of Indian companies across sectors.

BPOs, bio-technology, media, telecom and finance are some of the sectors likely to witnessing higher hirings, Bhatia said.
