INfosys to offer 13,000 Jobs on Campuses
Date: 10-Dec-2009
BANGALORE:
Infosys Technologies, the country’s second largest IT services exporter,
is likely to make 13,000 campus offers to fresh engineering graduates who are
expected to join during the course of fiscal 2011.
Interacting with
media persons here on Wednesday, Nandita Gurjar, senior VP, Infosys said that
they have already started going to campuses in about 700 engineering colleges.
Infosys had made 20,000 offers to engineering graduates for the 2009 fiscal,
though only around 75-80 % of the students actually join the company.
The Indian IT services industry has discontinued the earlier
practice of selecting the students a year before they complete their graduation
and is now visiting colleges in the final semester itself. According to the
Infosys official, they would be closing the 2009 fiscal with around 18,000
freshers and 3,500 experienced hires and it is expected that the same hiring
numbers is likely for the coming fiscal.
The compensation package for the students
coming into Infosys from the next fiscal will be same as last year.
The
campus offers for the Indian IT industry had run into certain rough weather
during the FY09 with certain companies delaying the entry of these students and
in some cases putting them on a different stream of work.
