The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting all industries but some more than others. The economy has fallen into a recession, which will inevitably have a huge impact on how companies recruit new talent. The Covid-19 pandemic has created unprecedented circumstances for organisations around the world. The economy has taken a hit, forcing organisations to freeze hiring and cut the headcount budget in a bid to sustain revenues and margins. In a recent KPMG in India survey report on Covid-19 HR practices titled – ‘Cutting through crisis’, it is found that across all job levels, 66% of organisations have deferred or suspended their hiring schedules and 30% have decreased their hiring headcount budget. Moreover, to deal with restrictions on physical collaboration, more & more organisations are adopting alternate ways of working.
The coronavirus pandemic set a major drawback on Employment opportunities. As per latest report by The International Labour Organization and the Asian Development Bank, nearly 41 lakh youth in has lost their jobs. This report is based on Global Survey on Youth and COVID-19. With the help of this seminar AICTE plans to give in-depth knowledge about Job opportunities in the post COVID Era.
