Odisha Capital Not Among Top-15 Big Hiring Cities: Check Out Where Jobs Will Be On Offer

Even as the Tier-1 cities in the country are bullish on hiring, the State Capital city is yet to carve a niche among the top recruiter cities in the country.

The employment outlook report for the second quarter released by Teamlease shows that after metros and Tier-1 cities, the Tier-2 cities are bullish on hiring in the current year. When around 49 percent of recruiters are showing intent to hire in the current financial year, the number for Tier 2 cities have been 38 percent.

Though two cities from Odisha -Bhubaneswar and Cuttack - are in the Tier -2 category, Cuttack is nowhere in the employment creation map; Bhubaneswar failed to make it into the top-15. And the hiring intent in the Odisha capital is only in single digits.

However, Indore, a Tier 2 city, figures prominently in the top-15 cities that go ballistic in giving job opportunities to the youths in the country.
