There is more good news for those looking for jobs at IT companies. Infosys plans to hire 30,000 professionals this year.

Infosys chief executive S Gopalakrishnan exuded confidence on the growth of the IT sector, saying the IT industry is back on the growth track.

Speaking at the Technopark campus in Thiruvananthapuram, where Infosys has a development centre, he said a new campus in the special economic zone near Technopark would be fully operational by December.

He said Kerala can be a leading IT hub. The negative perception about Kerala needs to change and the state must promote it as an investment destination, he said.
