Progression observed in the industry

Indian IT industry has been witnessing high volatility, mainly due to economic uncertainties. Right talent acquisition and retention has been in the fore-front of focus to encounter these challenges. The industry, in the last few years has been experimenting with acquiring a diversified talent pool as against a traditional practice of breeding talent within the industry. Business domain specialization has gained more importance and made veterans in the respective domain more valuable than ever before to have a second career in IT.

Quicker turn-around time in developing leadership and tapping talent as early as in the first year of college are the other trends that is currently witnessed to beat the profitability battle and stay ahead of the competition.
