IT, ITeS generate highest number of jobs

New Delhi , April 22

Delhi emerged as the number one job-creating city in the country, according to a study conducted by industry chamber Assocham for the first two months of the current year.

Of the 6,175 job placements tracked by the study, employers in Delhi advertised for 1,495 placements, followed by Mumbai with 1,344 placements. Interestingly, Mumbai notched top rank in the job-creating chart in a similar study conducted in January last year.

The IT and ITeS sectors maintained their supremacy in terms of employment generating sectors with 2,579 out of the 6,175 advertised placements. Sales and marketing took the second spot with 1,727 placements, according to the study.

Thanks to a boom in infrastructure development and construction activity, engineering came up the ladder to occupy the third position among the employment generating sectors with 1,050 placements, according to the study.
