It is the time of the year, when college exams are over and those passed out are on the hunt for the job. India’s second largest IT company,Infosys, a dream company to many, maintained its reputation of being a dream company. It received a whooping 4,00,812 applications from prospective employees, out of which around 77,000 applicants underwent written test, approximately 61,000 were interviewed and 26,200 job offers were made in the fiscal year 2009-10. Which is only 6 percent of the total applications received.
To divulge further, out of the 26,200 offers made, 18,905 joined the company. Besides, the net addition, after taking into account the attrition during the year, to the company’s payroll was 6,837 employees in the fiscal ended March 31, 2010. Which means out of the total offers made, 72 percent of people joined, which clearly are signs of a much improved market with umpteen number of opportunities.
Including its subsidiaries, Infosys employed approximately 1,13,800 employees at the end of last fiscal.
The company recruits new students from premier universities, colleges and institutes in India and through need-based hiring of project leaders and middle managers. Besides, it has also begun selective recruitment at campuses in the US, the UK, Australia and China.
