If one looks at the ongoing hiring activity in the Indian IT sector, it is easy to spot the bustling activity. Almost after a year-long freezing in hiring activity, the IT sector is witnessing a continuous growth in job demand.

From health to jobs, Covid-19 pandemic has impacted every aspect of life! Last year when the pandemic struck India, many sectors including the IT sector suffered huge losses, which led to massive layoffs, pay cuts and hiring freezes.

Despite the challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, IT jobs market is witnessing a strong hiring boom. Demand for tech professionals is rising across IT firms, non-technical or consulting businesses wherein companies are bolstering their workforce with skilled engineers. According to a report by a financial news portal, lucrative opportunities are plenty for certain profiles. Full stack engineers, data engineers, frontend engineers, developer operations, data scientists and backend engineers are in high demand and are commanding higher salaries.

After 18 months, though there are many tech companies that have decided to continue remote work, some IT firms are reportedly planning to bring employees back to the office. As per reports, IT firms are taking this decision as Covid-19 cases are steadily declining and most employees are vaccinated. Leading IT firms such as TCS, Wipro and Apple are reportedly asking their employees to follow the hybrid style of working, where one is expected to work for 2-3 days from office and the next 2-3 days from home.

After a long gap of 18 months, one of the leading IT firms, Wipro is all set to call back its employees to the offices! With this, the third-largest tech company in India, reportedly became the first IT firm to publicly announce the return of some of its senior employees to office. Taking to Twitter, Wipro Chairman, Rishad Premji informed that the company's leadership would resume work from office, twice a week, starting from Monday (September 13).

After almost a year of slump, the IT jobs market in India is witnessing a strong hiring boom! According to media reports, quoting research firm Jefferies, hiring activity has picked up pace in the IT sector in India. Notwithstanding the pressures and disruptions during the pandemic, the sector is seeing robust activity.

With an aim to improve gender diversity, top IT companies such as Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), HCL Technologies, Wipro, and Infosys may hire around 60,000 women candidates through campus placements this year.
