The Tech major Capgemini, which employs close to 1.15 lakh people in India, is looking to hire up to 30,000 employees in India this year, as it seeks to derive more value from its presence. The hiring will be evenly split between freshers and experienced professionals, or laterals, Ashwin Yardi, Country Chief Executive, Capgemini said to PTI.
“As of now, the Company is focusing on re-skilling employees for the technologies of the future, and, India forms a very important part of our business, and we will hire 25,000-30,000 people here this year on a gross basis,” Yardi said.
It has been found that youngsters under 30, who make up for over 65% of its workforce, show a keenness to learn, he said, adding that it is conducting special programs for the mid-level managers having 10-15 years of experience who would be placed as project managers or architects.
Yardi added there has not been any “restructuring or involuntary attrition” beyond the normal course of exit due to performance-related issues.
He said the company believes in offering an entire bouquet of services to a client to meet the entire spectrum of needs and discloses the work done by a startup to the client.
Yardi also said, there is sufficient space at Airoli (near Mumbai), its biggest development centre, and also added that it had created capacity at other centres over the last two years which can accommodate the new joiners.
