Nineteen of the top 25 companies come from technology, finance, and enterprise software sectors, looking for technically fluent professionals who can work across teams, think critically, adapt quickly, and grow with the business,” said Nirajita Banerjee, LinkedIn career expert and India senior managing editor.
In this year’s list, 12 out of the top 25 are new, signaling a shift in the opportunities available to job seekers in the country.
Fidelity Investments, ranked 4th on the list, made the highest-ranking debut, followed by ServiceNow at 17 and Stripe at 21.
Financial services firms also have a heavy presence in the list with a total of 7 companies, including JPMorgan Chase (7), Wells Fargo (15) and American Express (25).
Common roles being hired for in these companies include business operations analyst, fraud analyst and financial analyst, with key skills in capital markets, investment banking and commercial banking, according to the statement.
Global multinational companies also made their presence felt in the list, showcasing their growing footprint in the country. E-commerce giant Amazon took the 8th spot on the list with Alphabet and Salesforce occupying the 9th and the 12th ranks respectively.
