Tier-II Cities Overtake Metros in Job Growth: A Surge in Hiring Trends

Recent report highlights a consistent growth in hiring trends in tier-II cities like Kochi, Coimbatore, and Jaipur, surpassing metropolitan areas. Factors such as infrastructural development, favorable policies, and a burgeoning talent pool contribute to this trend, making these cities attractive for business expansions. The production and manufacturing sectors lead this growth.

In a striking development, tier-II cities such as Kochi, Coimbatore, and Jaipur have shown consistent growth in hiring trends compared to their metropolitan counterparts in May, a recent report revealed.

According to CEO Sekhar Garisa of foundit (formerly Monster APAC & ME), this surge is fueled by sectors like Production and Manufacturing, aided by infrastructural advancements, favorable government policies, and a growing talent pool keen to bolster India's industrial progress.

The foundit Insights Tracker (fit), which provides a comprehensive monthly analysis of online job postings, also stated that metro cities like Kolkata and Delhi/NCR remain strong hiring hubs year-on-year but are experiencing a slower growth rate compared to tier-II cities. Key hiring spikes were noted in the IT-software, services, and real estate sectors, as well as education.
