MUMBAI - Campus recruitments at engineering colleges have fallen 17.4%
from a year ago, and campus hiring by the top four Indian information
technology companies has dropped 19.8%, according to a survey of placements
data of the class of 2009 from 45 engineering colleges by CLSA.
Among the top four, the largest decline in hiring is at Satyam Computer
Services Ltd and Wipro Ltd that have hired 33%-50% fewer freshers.
Campus recruitment for Tata Consultancy Services Ltd was down 16%, and
12% for Infosys Technologies Ltd, the report said.
The survey said some colleges have dropped IBM from their \"preferred
recruiter\" lists because the company apparently did not honour offer
commitments last year.
Infosys reduced campus visits to 620 this year, compared with 1,079 in the
previous year, it said.
Tier 2 and Tier 3 colleges were completely left out in the campus hiring
this year, CLSA said.
In some cases recruiters have reserved the right to return later.
However, even if all such instances were removed, CLSA found hiring would be
8% lower for the batch of 2009.
Accenture, the CLSA report said, was the only large recruiter that
recorded a year-on-year rise in fresher hiring, up 17.7%.
Since 2008 job offers pertain to engineers who would enter the work force
in Jul-Dec 2009, the slackening pace of offers was a measure of orderbook
confidence, the survey report said.
\"Numbers indicate that offshore vendors are not sure of the timing of the
recovery. Our conversations indicate that vendors may hire lesser freshers
for 2009 to retain flexibility in their cost structure. If demand picks up,
hiring from the market (i.e. laterals) may resume,\" the report said.
The brokerage has no \"buy\" recommendation on any IT stock at the moment,
and has a relative \"outperform\" rating only on Infosys. The other IT
companies covered by CLSA are currently rated \"underperform\". End
