Infosys, the Narayana Murthy founded software giant, is currently seeking experienced professionals across more than 40 different skill sets to fill various positions. The organisation requires candidates with a minimum of two years’ work experience in specialised fields including cloud computing, cyber security, Java Python, dotnet, Android/IoS development and automation testing, according to an ET report.
Sources indicate that this recruitment initiative is aligned with the company’s yearly lateral hiring strategy.
Similar recruitment initiatives were undertaken by Infosys in February and March of the previous year, which involved walk-in interviews at their development facilities in Bengaluru, Chennai and Hyderabad.
The organisation has circulated internal communications regarding the recruitment plans, enabling applicants to specify their preferred interview locations and desired work cities upon selection.

Approximately three years ago, the technology firm conducted online recruitment sessions in Bengaluru as the city recovered from the Covid-19 pandemic.
The company has not provided any response to queries about the targeted number of new recruits for this hiring drive.
Infosys has announced plans to recruit 20,000 freshers in the next financial year, whilst maintaining discretion about the distribution between fresh graduates and experienced professionals. Currently, the organisation employs approximately 323,000 individuals.
The recruitment campaign aims to address staffing gaps due to attrition and fulfil requirements for both existing and new project opportunities. Additional staffing needs have emerged for smaller projects, according to sources.
This recruitment drive follows the recent distribution of roughly 600 offer letters to engineering students from institutions near Karnataka’s Dharwad district in the previous month. This forms part of the strategy to enhance operations at their Hubballi development centre.
