IT sector hiring to see growth of 8.5% next year, says Indeed report

Hiring in the IT sector is set to see a growth of 8.5 per cent in the year 2025, owing to demand for skilled IT talent in the country, according to data from hiring platform Indeed.

“The IT sector has consistently stood as a major employment powerhouse. However, recent quarters saw a slowdown in hiring, with companies exercising caution as they navigated through global uncertainties and economic shifts. Now, the tide is turning. Companies are actively ramping up their hiring efforts. We can also expect global capability centres (GCCs) to significantly contribute to this uptick in hiring, particularly in software and technological roles,” said Sashi Kumar, head of sales, Indeed India.
