    We talk about recession, sacking thousands from jobs from the IT or any other sector but what about new recruitments?I found in one of today's blogs that world's third largest IT firm is recruiting fresh engg graduates for INR 7000/-. What a pity!In our country engineering graduates will be paid only 7k.A person working as security staff is paid more than this.IT industry has declined to such a deteriorating level or what? Why are companies reducing pay for new recruitments if they are listed in the world market? Why not reduce the allowances of those employees who were enjoying all benefits of the company all these days and make them contribute. The company had been giving them all emoluments and at times of crisis the employees within should sacrifice the extra benefits enjoyed by them instead of hiring fresh candidates for a meagre pay. What kind of strategies or policies are they maintaining?Those brains which worked for these IT firms-day and night who were the pillars - are thrown away one fine day after meetings and meetings.Is this the ethics which these companies follow which boast of a turnover of billions and millions? What laws are applicable against such companies which hire employees for a lower pay than their existing standards? Are there any set service rules or regulations for such companies that they should follow the salary structure for all categories?Are HR personnel be held for hiring people for the company on a pay lesser than the company standards?Are our CEOs or VPs aware of this?Will the Government interfere or the Industry of commerce interfere?Everything depends on US and the stock market it seems. If obama says no, then premji or murthy or nilekani will also say no.Why not sack foreigners in indian companies?You cannot.Why because we are still slaves of some American or British who pulls the thread for us to work or not to even in our own country.What a pathetic situatio!

    For the attention of CEOs and VPs of each company.Your HR personnel seek the help of consultancies to hire people for openings in respective positions.I had recently atttended 5-6 interviews in MNCs through consultancies.I get a call from the consultancy that you are shortlisted.You have to attend the interview in so and so date at so and so time.When reaching the office in Whitefield or wherever you will be asked to wait.An HR executive come and talks to you for 5mts.Pls wait our Sr.HR executive will talk to you.30mts passed.They ae all in a meeting.How many meetings do these junior and senior executives have per day? Another person with the same attitude and questions talk to you for 10mts.Unexpected questions unnecessarily asked and they say "you have changed your career many times"and "you were on a contract".So let me discuss with my manager and i will let you know.This kind of unprofessional demeanor is not expected from MNC HR personnel.The funniest part is they only shortlist people send from consultancies and they know the JD perfectly well.On what grounds do they schedule interivews and what are they trying to find out calling us and wasting our time and their time giving us the excuse that "i was busy in a meeting".Don't they have any schedule for the meetings? Why do they call up candidates if they are not sure of their schedules and profile? It is ridiculous to watch these acts and finally we get information that somebody has been appointed on "internal reference".Then why do they call up other candidates?What kind of ethics are they following?Is it routine interview to show in their records that they had interviewed many candidates and some work has been done from their side?Is this acceptable?
