Diversity hiring from campuses rises
Mint Kolkata
|December 19, 2024
Companies in India are increasing diversity hiring for roles ranging from software development to mechanical engineering as they try to come across to investors and the public as forward-thinking entities with good corporate governance norms.
Placement officers from at least four colleges in India have hinted that diversity hiring for the batch of 2025 has risen from last year, in addition to the general recruitment of engineering students.
German engineering company Robert Bosch GmbH, software provider IBM Corp., and Noida-headquartered Coforge Ltd have engaged in diversity hiring on campuses this year, ranging from people across genders to those who are differently abled.
Placements for students at engineering colleges generally start in the seventh semester, the first of the final year.
