Cognizant to hire aggressively this year: CEO

Date: 06-May-2010

photoBANGALORE: Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp plans to hire aggressively through the year as it sees an upswing in demand and the war for talent heats up.

The IT services provider's India-based rivals Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys and Wipro have revived hiring after a lackluster 2009.

The company also competes for talent with the likes of Accenture, IBM and Hewlett-Packard.

"Given that we've revised our guidance, my anticipation is that we'll clearly continue to hire throughout the rest of this year," Chief Executive Francisco D'Souza said in an interview with Reuters.

Cognizant's solid first-quarter results prompted the company to project revenue growth of at least 25 per cent for the year.
