Job seekers can look forward to a prosperous new year as more than 850,000 new jobs are expected across various sectors, including FMCG and healthcare, says a survey.
Coming against the backdrop of uncertain economic conditions, the projected number of new jobs in 2014 is higher than the estimated 790,000 employment opportunities created this year, according to the survey by recruitment platform MyHiringClub.com.
The findings are based on a study conducted among more than 5,600 firms across 12 industry sectors.
All the opportunities have been projected in for the organized sector, it added.
Besides FMCG, more jobs are expected in healthcare, IT, retail and hospitality sectors.
"Last calendar year was not good either for job seekers or for employers due to uncertain and fluctuated economical and political conditions. 2014 is coming with positive vibes for job-seekers and expected to create 850,000 new jobs in different sectors,” MyHiringClub.com CEO Rajesh Kumar said.
"Finding employees who have employability or job readiness skills that help fit into and remain in the work environment is a real problem and threatening to growth. These issues need to be addressed on priority," he added.
