A global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, Infosys is repeatedly delaying the joining and onboarding of freshers.
On the delay in Freshers’ Onboarding, Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) said, “Repeated joining date delays causing hardship. Graduates facing uncertainty & financial strain. Urge @Infosys to provide a clear & expedited onboarding timeline.”
On the Delay, Harpreet Singh Saluja, President, NITES said, “Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) is deeply concerned about the ongoing delay of joining dates for Infosys campus recruits who received offer letters in April 2022.”
“This extended wait has caused significant stress and uncertainty for these students, who may have turned down other opportunities in anticipation of joining Infosys”, he added.
He further said, “NITES urges Infosys to immediately address the concerns of these future IT professionals by setting a firm joining date and providing them with the clarity and support they deserve.”

Earlier, Infosys also said it sees no immediate campus requirement as of now.
During December quarter results, Infosys Chief Financial Officer Nilanjan Roy said, “We continue to monitor the utilization and our flexi hiring model and at this stage of course we’re not seeing any immediate campus requirement.”
However, the company is standing apart from industry trends triggered by GenAI, refraining from job reduction or any form of job cuts seen elsewhere.
CEO Salil Parekh told CNBC-TV18, “No, we are not doing any of that. Others in the industry have done that. We’ve been very clear that that’s not the approach.”
“Over the next several years, we’ll have more and more people joining us who become experts in generative AI and we will be serving the world’s large organizations”, he informed.
