During the time of pandemic, there was a hiring freeze and slowdown faced by the IT industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Infosys<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But this has changed during the last financial year as the Indian IT major Infosys hired 21,000 individuals from campuses across the globe as per the report<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Infosys Planning A Huge Hire<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continuing this trend, this year the IT firm is planning to take the number further up to 25,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, this announcement comes during a time when Infosys is gearing up for the upcoming talent war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The firm appears to compete for the best talent to scale performance and outpace the lingering challenges from the previous year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides these hiring efforts, Infosys has also announced pay hikes from July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we consider the last quarter, the net hiring for Infosys stood at 10,309 and 17,248 in the previous financial year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gearing Up For Upcoming Talent War<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, the company reported an attrition rate of 15.2 per cent at the end of the March quarter, in a recent conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This represents a sharp spike from 10 percent in the previous quarter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is noteworthy here that this spike comes despite the company undertaking a pay hike in January. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering the high demand for work and limited availability of skilled workers, CEO Salil Parekh hinted towards a brewing talent war in the IT\/ITES industry in a recent analysts conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving ahead, the IT service provider guided for a consolidated operating margin of 22-24 per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is suggesting that the company is expecting some pressure on profitability owing to the higher spend on talent retention and pay hikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, Infosys reported a consolidated operating margin of 24.5 percent in 2020-21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This seems to be a tense climate for employers as hiring picks up and professionals look out for the best opportunities supplemented with the right compensation and flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is yet to be seen as to how companies elevate their practices and offerings to be the employer of choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
