In speaking about the hiring strategy, Hareesha Pattaje, Managing Director and Delivery Head India, Synechron said, “We are witnessing huge growth in India this year specifically in Digital Transformation initiatives across various BFSI clients. Although our focus is to hire people with strong domain knowledge, we will still be looking at dedicated professionals in the range of 4 to 10 years of relevant experience. The key skills we are currently targeting include: Java full stack, Angular/React, Cloud & DevOps, Data Engineers, UI/UX Specialists, Automation Engineers, Agile Coaches and Business Analysts. We are also leveraging our internal talent, who are frequently cross-skilling and upskilling themselves, to be placed in appropriate roles.”

With the number of global operating locations having increased to 22 in 2021 from 18 in 2020, Synechron is seeking talented professionals to hire across all levels. With many professionals opting to upskill themselves in various domains, it will be interesting to see how the company screens the candidates for the right jobs.
