As of today, a lot of young engineers have been recruited by the major IT firms but so far only a few students who studied in one of the top colleges have actually joined the respective organizations. The others have been simply made to wait for them to call. Its already been 5 months and it is predicted to last for a few more months at least.
Some attribute this situation as due to the US recession and the IT firms major dependence on US. It may be also due to the inability to forecast the events by these firms. But many say this is due to the ruthless increase in head count performed by the companies by recruiting in bulk well in advance of almost a year. Following this, these companies may follow a demand-supply process in recruiting people i.e. recruiting people only when there is a job vacancy/demand for them and also in the required minimum number of recruited candidates.
The situation is almost equal in all IT majors like Infosys, Wipro, TCS, CTS, Sathyam, HCL, Caritor, etc. They have called only people from the top educational institutes as of now. The fate of others or when they will be called is little known. The situation is worse in the cases of Sathyam, Caritor and CTS where only a handful of people have been called and there is no proper response or communication from the respective HRs about the joining dates.
While companies like TCS and Wipro have been communicative about the DOJs, some others like Infosys and HCL have been giving online training till the recruited candidates are called. Very little is known about the other firms with no proper communication from their sides which is what the recruited candidates are expecting at the least.
