We are hiring in India, says Accenture CEO

BENGALURU: IT services firm Accenture, which posted better-than-expected fourth-quarter revenues at $16.4 billion, will ramp up its hiring in India.

During an investor call, Julie Sweet, chair and CEO, Accenture, said, “We are hiring primarily in India, so a lot of that hiring is technology in India, and of course it also addresses refreshing our pyramid at this time, so you’ve got kind of the new college graduates coming in, so there’s really no change in our talent strategy.”
