No wonder, the Indian IT industry is exploding with lucrative opportunities – 2018 began witnessing a steep rise in demand for skilled consultants specialized in the quarters of emerging technologies, like machine learning and artificial intelligence as well as big data and analytics. And, with a steady focus on Digital India, the IT recruitment industry is on its wheels to add 50% more workforce, resulting in another 1.80 to 2.0 lakh job creation by the end of this year.

Artificial Intelligence alone has the ability to generate 2.3 million jobs globally by 2020, says Alka Dhingra, GM, IT Staffing, TeamLease Services, a leading recruitment company. 

Revival of Indian IT sector

Since the technology is taking charge and rapidly transforming the every facet of business, the World Economic Forum has predicted a net loss of 5 million jobs in a couple of years. However, this leaves little room for worry, because job seekers and skilled professionals possessing the desired skills will be in a comfortable position to capitalize this trend and strive for better.

In this context, “Priority focus for us would be re-skilling the workforce in AI and big data,” says Debjani Ghosh, President, Nasscom, further adding, “Of the 4 million jobs in the industry, the nature of 60-65% is likely to change over the next five years.”

Quite interestingly, 1 out of 5 companies are found using AI to boost decision-making capacity. It help companies provide curated customized solutions and instructions to techies in real-time. Back in the day, traditional text analytics platforms were extremely complex; a handful number of companies were lucky enough to successfully analyze text data. But now, with Deep learning in AI, analysis of structured and unstructured text data has become a piece of cake – as a result of which, “We expect a 60 per cent increase in demand for AI and machine learning specialists in 2018,” shares BN Thammaiah, Managing Director, Kelly Services India.

Just like their job responsibility, the pay package of an AI professional breathes of adequacy – a techie with 2-4 years of experience earns 15-20 lakh INR annually, whereas 4-8 years of experience leads to 20-50 lakh INR annually.
