Wipro plans to hire 10,000-12,000 employees this fiscal year following a six-quarter decrease in employee headcount.
Wipro hired 337 employees in the first quarter and plans to recruit freshers from engineering campuses.
Improved demand in some business sectors has spurred job increases, per Wipro.
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) set a campus hiring target for FY25 last year.
"After a break of a year we have started on-boarding freshers from campus. This quarter we on-boarded around 3,000 freshers. We would be on-boarding around 10,000-12,000 people this fiscal," said Sourabh Govil, CHRO, Wipro.
Govil said the company will complete all this year's pending offers.
Even Infosys plans to hire 15,000-20,000 freshers through campus and off-campus recruitment, marking its first hiring announcement in six quarters.
TCS, Infosys' larger peer, aims to hire 40,000, having onboarded 11,000 freshers in the first quarter.
