Bengaluru, June 13 (IANS) Signalling a shift in hiring strategies, IT companies in India, particularly in the hardware and software sectors, are hiring freshers the most as the demand for raw talent has increased by 5 per cent over the last six months, a report showed on Thursday.

To bridge this gap, there’s a pressing need for better learning and development initiatives within our educational system, Garisa added.
