The transition from acting as a global back-office service provider to becoming the primary architect of sophisticated machine intelligence has fundamentally redefined the economic trajectory of India’s most vibrant tech city.

The persistent disconnect between a company’s inability to fill open roles and the record-breaking volume of incoming applications suggests that modern recruitment has become its own worst enemy.
