The Current Situation of IT Job Market in India

Information and Technology (IT) industry has metamorphosed Indian socio-economic scenario from a snail paced bureaucratic economy to a field of innovative and enthusiastic entrepreneurs. The IT Boom started way back in the 1980’s/90’s when the existing government allowed foreign investment and thus introduced the Indians to outsourced jobs in the form of BPOs and IT Services. The IT Boom during the last two decades has changed the lifestyle and social pattern of the urban population completely. The revival of the IT Job market post the blow of the massive rescission in 2008 had been steady if not extravagant.

A recent study conducted by a group of researchers suggests the IT Jobs are the best paying jobs in the whole of the nation. The aspects that make the IT jobs interesting apart from the sleek glass panelled beautiful office buildings and campuses are the diversity in the nature of jobs that can be performed to keep a particular company up and running. Another fact that charms us is that shifting your job nature like hopping from application development to administration .Nevertheless the role of the head hunter organisations in India cannot be overlooked in rolling the wheel of jobs in the IT Market.
The placement agencies play a very crucial role in the job placement scenarios. Their impeccable and pristine contacts are their primary resource in the placement game. It is their huge backend database that accounts for the perfect combination of job-seekers and employers keeping both the parties happy. This is true not only for a particular city or locality but also for the whole of the nation. It is often observed that personal follow-ups happen post a job interview. These follow-ups constitutes either for scheduling further job-interviews for the failed candidates or feedback of the jobseekers experiences. These feedbacks are always used as the stepping stones to enhance their performance for future endeavours.
It is also to be noted that contacts alone do not make these job-sites successful. Their other policies also contribute to their success story. They usually have a very innovative way to attract their customers by means of witty advertisements for both printed and audio-visual media along with various other methods. The easy accessibility of their websites also makes them interesting thereby alluring the masses. It is needless to mention that these job sites are responsible for the maximum IT Jobs fairs held in the country. One has to remember how much a single job fair creates a potential IT market in the nation.
Since most of the IT industry jobs are outsourced so there is a huge chance that anyone can have the chance of working abroad with an enticing pay check. Such sync-ups are often created by these placement agencies with the provisioning of visa and other requirements. Also these agencies are responsible for the innumerable workshops and seminars for enhancing /acquiring the various skill sets. One can only imagine the amount of help these agencies provide to address the unemployment problems of India and also uplift the economy of the country.
