HDFC bank shifts hiring focus, to take 5,000 freshers via tie-ups

Over a period of time, all our fresher hiring will be through such tie-ups,' a bank spokesperson said. Hiring freshers involves a significantly high 68 per cent of the bank's gross hiring at present. The bank added almost 10,000 people on a net basis in FY19, taking its overall base to over 98,000. It can be noted that at present, banks depend on internal training after being hired. Typically, after the training, they are placed into operations. The HDFC Bank spokesperson said at present, they have tie-ups wherein candidates undergo shorter courses of two-three months, whereas the new partnership is a PG diploma with intensive training. Before being admitted for the diploma, a candidate will be interviewed by the bank and the diploma is split between six months of classroom training and six months at the bank as an intern, the spokesperson said. It can be noted that the announcement comes amid concerns on 'employability' of students after passing out from the present educational curriculum.
