Fewer jobs for IT graduates

IT graduates have been feeling the implications of the slowdown down of the economy. 
In 2011, IT major Infosys hired about 19,000 candidates while MindTree recruited as many as 2,400.
This year Infosys announced that the company would not recruit more than 6000 candidates much to the dismay of the students.
MindTree is also planning to hire just 1000 candidates
Joining dates of several fresher’s have also been postponed.  
About 82 percent of the 1,000-odd information technology (IT) graduates from Goa's technical education institutions have to migrate for jobs to Pune, Mumbai, Hyderabad or Chennai or fly overseas for jobs.
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), among the top 10 IT firms in the world, has recruited a record 144 students from the Aligarh Muslim University campus.
