Press Trust of India / New Delhi Aug 02, 2011, 17:43 IST

Presenting an optimistic hiring scenario, majority of the recruiters expect creation of more jobs in the coming months, according to a survey.

Leading job portal Naukri.Com's survey showed that 78% of the recruiters predict addition of new jobs, while only 2% anticipate layoffs in the second half of 2011.

The overall sentiment shows that hiring activity will continue to move at a brisk pace over the next six months, it said.

"Employers began recruiting at a steady pace in the first half of 2011 and confidence levels were high. The survey findings indicate sustainable new job opportunities in the remainder of the year and job seekers can look forward to a favourable hiring environment," Info Edge Chief Financial Officer Ambarish Raghuvanshi said.

"Thirty one per cent said that the range was between 15% and 20% and 18% said increments were within the range of 5% and 10%," the report said.

Among the respondents, 60% felt that maximum hiring activities would be seen for employees with four to eight years of experience.

Around 50% said that recruitment levels would be high for those with one to three years experience

"Twenty two per cent of the recruiters opted for 8-15 years, while 20% said that jobs would be created for freshers," it said.
