<b>Indian job seekers beware</b>!
PRESS TRUST OF INDIA
New Delhi: Indian job seekers beware! With a large number of professionals from the US, UK and African countries seeking jobs in India, competition is bound to rise manifold in the job market here.
As an effect of outsourcing and job cuts in countries like the US and the UK, experts here say that skilled foreign workers from these countries are now exploring opportunities elsewhere. India for several reasons is fast emerging as one of the most favoured destinations for these professionals.
âContrary to what has been happening so far, the Indian job market is witnessing reverse migration with a lot of foreigners now looking for jobs in India. Although presently the number of such cases is not very large the process has started,â says Kris Lakshmikanth, founder CEO and managing director of Head Hunters (India), a recruiting firm.
âAs several foreign firms are setting up their offices here in India, experienced professionals from these countries are also on the lookout for jobs here and the trend is being witnessed by the top-tier recruitment firms,â Mr Lakshmikanth adds.
