Recruitment Industry have their super-heroes now

Google search of Challenges Recruitment Industry returns about 36,10,000 results

  • Job Portals like Naukri, Monster, etc. have been there for quite some time but they would never promise a successful hire
  • Recruitment Consultancies like Sutra HR & Hiring Monk have a success ratio of 60% and a cycle time of 30 days.
  • An average of 14.4 interviews is taken before an offer is rolled out. In 23% of the cases, the candidate does not join despite having been selected.

Why is this big
India’s GDP is estimated to grow by 7%. NASSCOM estimates that 3100 startups are present in India which is the 3rd largest base in the world. We are growing at 800 startups setting up annually. It believes that there would be 11500 startups employing over 250k people by 2020. At an average of 25,000 pm (for startups), this translates to a 62 crore industry assuming just 10% of people switch per year which is quite realistic keeping in mind the short employee life cycle in start-ups. There are no major players in this domain and is a rather untapped market
