Mahindra Satyam, the rebranded Satyam Computer Services, is planning to recruit 2,000 professionals. It will be a mix of freshers and lateral hiring, to cater to specific requirements of some clients.
The IT outsourcing company, now treading on a recovery path, received approval from its new owner, Tech Mahindra, in October 2009 to go ahead with external hiring for speciality skills.
“Things are looking good and we are seeing some positive trends on the business side. Since the requirements are pouring in and the business outlook is clearly visible, on the whole, we are looking at 2,000 people to be brought on board, including specialised skills which we don’t have in the company currently,” a top official from the company, who did not wish to be named, told Business Standard.
The company will be hiring primarily for the banking, insurance and healthcare sectors and some element of engineering services, the official said. Adding, they would explore campus recruitments some time at the start of the next financial year, “as the company’s business increases”.
It is also tapping those to whom Satyam extended offer letters in 2008 but could not accommodate due to the financial crunch.
Around 3,000 freshers (of the total of 6,000 students who were made the offers earlier) recently took online tests which were conducted by the company. “We have tried contacting as many (students) as available, asking them to come and take a test. Students in batches (in 50s and 60s in number) are attending these tests. We will absorb whoever is suitable and eligible after the tests,” the official said.
